I run all my auto232 matches using a basic serial cable (not null modem)
connected from serial 1 to serial 1. The only program I haven't been able to get
working this way, is MChess 8.

To answer the other question raised: No, you cant do a virtual connection in
memory. Are you trying then to use one computer for this? That wont work (I
don't believe) and it's not a good idea to use one machine for engine-engine
matches anyway.
