Though I've never done this sort of "networking" before, I think I
understand it.  Think of it almost as though your serial line is acting as
a monitor cable leading to your DOS machine.  It's just sending a console
display through the serial cable, and you have to have a DOS program to
receive and show the display.  Does that help?
