How are you wanting to use D-Rats? D-Star is a network in and of itself which D-Rats will route through. Are you wanting to use the mesh network to provide a path to the Internet? Then so long as you can get to a mesh node that has been setup as a Gateway, you're all set... simply configure D-Rats with that as your gateway.
D-RATS is pretty easy to implement. There is the Ratflector server that you'll run on a computer and set as an advertised service (http://www.d-rats.com/documentation/4-howtos/29-running-your-own-ratflec...). From there, you can direct D-RATS clients to connect to the Ratflector and then you can chat, send pictures, files, and email like messages.
