Hi Joaquim!

 JH> Is anyone aware of any software / driver for Linux that will, like
 JH> NetSerial for example, emulate a "modem" over TCP/IP. That is, I can
 JH> send "ATDT123.123.123.123" and it will establish a telnet session with
 JH> the specified IP address and "act" like a modem?

 JH> Pref. one that can be run / invoked without re-compiling the Linux
 JH> Kernel :)

As already mentioned in another area:
https://github.com/geneb/tcpser/blob/master/README

I do not think that you need to recompile the kernel for it.

Application:

TCPSER turns a PC serial port into an emulated Hayes compatible modem that
uses TCP/IP for incoming and outgoing connections.  It can be used to allow
older applications and systems designed for modem use to operate on the
Internet.  TCPSER supports all standard Hayes commands, and understands
extended and vendor proprietary commands (though it does not implement
many of them). TCPSER can be used for both inbound and outbound connections.

CU, Ricsi
