    After a very long pause, NetFoss is back in development!

    NETFOSS is a Freeware TCP/IP FOSSIL Driver for
    Windows 2003, XP, 2000, and NT4. It is considerably
    faster and smaller then any other Windows FOSSIL
    driver, and is fully complient with the FOSSIL
    revision 5 specification.

    NETFOSS works with both DOS and Win32 BBS programs,
    allowing all FOSSIL aware DOS doors to be run over
    a telnet connection.

    You can download it from http://www.netfoss.com.
    I am looking for additional beta testers.

    New in Version 0.8.6: Added a work around for some
    doors that are not FOSSIL level 5 compliant.
    A new Communication Engine improves overall
    performance by delaying writes by a split second
    to create larger TCP/IP packet sizes. Added delays
    when sending via Zmodem, to prevent the BBS side
    from finishing the transfer too soon and thus
    timing out while waiting for the client to respond.
