L2TP & Packet Drivers

I've been trying to find a packet driver for Windows (Windows 2003 Server)
to be able to use my software. The packet driver I previously used, ran in
DOS. I also had my software running in a VDM. If you know much about the
packet driver interface, please give your insight into how I can use my
software with L2TP.

Make a "NDIS protocol" driver. Examples are available in WDK and other
places.
Unless you have your own hardware, in that case it becomes harder.
But if all you need is L2TP, just use the Windows L2TP VPN.

Do Windows packet drivers connect to L2TP?

Take a look at http://www.winpcap.org. Opensource.
If you need something specific you can learn at available sources.
