   Does anyone know how to run a packet driver based application

   doing this a while back.

Oh sigh.  What you want to do simply cannot be done.  That would be
running *two* TCP/IP stacks in the same machine at the same time.
Chaos.  It sounds like what you want is a POP client for Sun's PC-NFS.
