I'm not saying this is the best way to go about this, but have you 
looked at Synchonet? http://www.synchro.net

Rob has written a Windows aware protocol stack called SEXYZ that may 
work with less futz.

http://vert.synchro.net/msgs/msg.ssjs?msg_sub=syncanno&message=7

SEXYZ was developed as a native (32-bit) TCP/socket-based replacement 
for the
16-bit DOS file transfer drivers (e.g. FDSZ, CE-XYZ, etc.) that we've been
stuck with on Win32 BBSes for *far* too long. While SEXYZ was designed with
Synchronet BBSes in mind, it should also work with other Win32 BBS packages
that have the ability to pass socket descriptors to external file transfer
protocol drivers.
