 They didn't change it. They removed the D/L page completly. :-(
They now say that it's no longer available for D/L

But, if you know the where "back door" is....... :-))
ftp://ftp.lineo.com/pub/devsup/drdos/
(I checked them........ dr702.exe, dr703.exe and od701.exe
 are *not* corrupted like the .zip files)

BTW, I never received a reply to *this* message. (big surprise, huh???)

 Thanks for the info Doug,
But, that's not what we wanted.
(we already knew where to get v7.03)
What we would like are the old versions of DR-DOS and Novell-DOS.

(These .ZIP files)

 I have checked every .ZIP file and they are *all* corrupted.
(as I stated in this original message)
[I have not had a chance as of yet to check the .EXE files for corruption]

 As before... thank you for any assistance you may be able to offer.
