Talking to myself here, but I did figure it out. I was on the right track with the TCPSER utility, but didn't quite have the right setup.

For anyone else running through this, I stumbled onto a video that included the correct command line options:

tcpser.exe -s 38400 -v 25232 -p 6400 -i "q0e1v1h0x4s0=0&D2&C1&K3" -l4 -tsS -I

Then had to make sure Peripheral Devices -> RS232 was set up correctly. I have ACIA enabled, pointing to Serial 4, with emulation mode set to SwiftLink.

In the bottom section of serial settings, serial 4 is set to 127.0.0.1:25232, 38400 baud, with the IP232 box checked.

I know it's a fringe use case, but there it is in case anyone else needs it (or if I need to refer to it later).

.... "Road work ahead" ... I sure hope it does!
