There was a request that I post the details of how to work DOSEMU
through an inetd connection.  I couldn't get my old method to work with the
latest version, so I was trying the stable version, which I was sure had
worked at soem point.  However, it doesn't seem to work anymore on the
new kernel :(

Ok, I will take a look at it.  In the meantime, I really would like to
know if anyone gets 1.0.2.1 to work with the latest kernel, and the
precise kernel version which broke it would be helpful.
