I have looked around a bit, KA9Q's nos was developed before kiss by 2 
years so that might explain it, I did find a kiss driver for dos tcp/ip 
aplications that only talk to ethernet packet drivers but the webpage 
for it actualy talks about being tested against a KA9Q's NOS configured 
with a kiss port.
So looking a bit further it looks like the current way to connect a kiss 
tnc to a nos like jnos2 or tnos is the same as it was for KA9Q's NOS 
attaching an ASY interface with mode ax25:
