I'm very interested in the network stack, having explored it for a while for https://github.com/akkartik/mu before giving up. What sort of network card do you support?

Everything in my "operating system" is 16-bit x86 code. It uses regular DOS packet drivers. I have also started writing my own DOS kernel, but it is not ready yet. The server uses FreeDOS kernel. That's why I write the "operating system" in quotation marks.
And because my TCP/IP stack is 16-bit code, it probably won't work for your system. It's just a DOS program that has an interrupt service routine that the other programs can call.
