I found a binary application which runs natively on FreeBSD, SCO, Linux
and a couple of others which can read (and INTERACT) with a serial
port:
"SCom"
QTek, http://www.sensorsoft.com
not only do they sell this extremely functional serial communication
program, they also sell temperature sensors, humidity sensors, remote
power on/off switches which can all be read using SCom, and which can
also be read remotely over the net (if you set up SCom in inetd.conf)
I didn't read your application for which you need DOS, but perhaps
you can do the whole solution using FreeBSD?
