   It won't work.  Netfoss handles the Comports different than   
   Searchlight expects.  Instead of getting the comport from the BBS, it   
   gets it from the Windows itself.  I forget how it works but I   
   addressed this to Mike a couple or three years ago and there never was   
   a fix presented.
