I need remote access from home to my work OS/2 computer.  I would
like a NDIS driver that works over the serial port.  I know Token
Technologies makes Remote Vision and there is one called nbr11.zip
made by Eighth Generation or something like that.
 
Having NDIS over serial port would allow me to run TCP/IP, NETBIOS,
and IPX to my machine at work.
 
Are there any other vendors that make this type of product?

  I'm using NBR11I.ZIP (with a couple of fixes).   It works great!   It
  is available on hobbes (ftp-os2.nmsu.edu).   Check /pub/os2/2.0/network
  (just a guess).

  I run SNA, Banyan Vines, and TCP/IP-in-a-DOS-box.

What might those couple of fixes be?

  1) On a Token Ring bridge, frames were not forwarded if bridge numbers
     of *real* bridges in the frame's path were non-zero.   We number all
     of our TR bridges (IBM 8209s) as bridge #1 (no parallel bridges).
 
  2) I was getting TRAPs on the client.   One fix reduced the number of
     these, but a new version of NTS/2 LAPS cured the problem.   In
     retrospect, I'm not sure that the fix to the NASYNC driver would
     be necessary.   I'm now running the NTS/2 beta from the 11/92 PDK.
     Previously, I was running a previous beta I got from our IBM rep.
     I suspect the production NTS/2 would work OK, but I can't confirm
     it.

What TCP/IP package you used in a DOS box ? Thanks.
