Hi all...
I'm trying to setup samba between Linux and a DrDos 7.03 machine. The Dos machine does not have W$ on it at all. It has the A and C drives. I would like to have it see my Linux machine as the D drive. It looks simple on the Linux side, but how can I (or can I?) do this on the Dos side. I've looked at the manuals in SuSE 7.2 and it's mainly for M$ windows.
There are 3 posbilities to conennect DROS to Linux: 1. Using nwclient and marsnwe. This using the ipx-protocol. Its easy to configure and the way i do. 2. Using M$-DOS IP-STACK (WIN3.1). There is no need to install M$-Win 3.1 on the DOS-Client, but it takes a lot of memory under 640kb, so you can get problems with your Programms. There is a NETBIOS-client within. I tried it, but got trouble with mem on DOS-client. 3. Using DR-DOS IP-STACK. It's not free, but very small use of mem under 640kb. Then you need a nfs-client which is not included. (only ftp is included). That's the way i'm working on. May be there is the posibillty to merge number 2 and 3 (using DR_DOS IPSTACK and M$DOS-NETBIOSclient), but i did't try it. cu Gerald
