This information isnt specifically on the Amylaar driver, but it may lead you to
something on it, and hopefully others will find it useful. A list of "some" of
the mud type servers ported to w95:
    http://lost.strange.com/mush/win95-ports.html

You can also check out the ftp area of ftp.game.org for w95 versions.

Another code not listed on the above that i'm proud to be a part of is NeonMuck,
which has been ported to w95, has a built in webserver and is able to handle
html and multimedia with the Pueblo app (www.chaco.com) can be found by ftp'ing
to talon.org in the /neon directory.

Hope it helps.
Masque.
