I really enjoyed, about 4-5 years ago, a small (2-300K), free dos
program, which succesfully emulated basic unix networking
(telnet, ftp, rip routing, etc.) (TCP/IP). 
I used it exactly for accessing unix boxes from old 286s, in text
mode.
Do a search for ka9q (as it was called in the docs), maybe it's
still out there, somewhere.
