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.
