Heyo!
  
On the boa page, the one ported with djgpp, it says that you can
probably run oba in a DOS box in win95, if you get a program
 that the person didn't have any info on.
They pointedto a page at www.delorie.com, but it didn't have anything.
  
This is what I assume the program would do, and if somebody can help
me find one, I'd be grateful since I need it to run other net apps
in a DOS box.
  
OK, I'm looking for something that will:
  
trick things in DOS requring a packet driver into thinking they ahve one,
and use the windows PPP stuff
in dial up networking, to do all net stuff.  So for example I could run
boa in a DOS box and still check mail with eudora, say.
  
Please respond to me at:
gwynn AT globaldialog DOT com
  
because my newsfeed is horrible, and I'll probably lose
any messages posted ot the group.
  
If somebody can help me find the program I'm looking for,
I'll be eternally grateful.
  
Basically I need something that will let me run DOS networkingapps
requiring a packet driver and windows 95 networking apps at the same time.
  
Thanks!
