Re: [Freedos-user] How do you transfer files to your FreeDOS machine

2014-08-06 Thread Ulrich
Just a small update:

I am not really confident to get NDN FTP working with external sites.

If I configure a nameserver in WATTCP.CFG I get Connection Error 10060 instead 
of 10051. Name resolving is working, but the client fails to make a connection. 
This seems to be a local problem. I tried this by exposing the local mTCP 
ftpsrv to the internet. The connection to the same machine in the LAN did work 
- but over the internet it failed. There wasn't no connection, no handshake, 
nothing.

So at least it worked locally. But it crashed a few times. So at the moment it 
wouldn't be my favorite way to transfer files to my FreeDOS machine.

If anyone had it running once, please send me a note.
:-)

 Okay.
 I got Necromancer's Dos Navigator and its integrated graphical FTP Browser to 
 work - at least for the LAN. 
 (With a connection to two external FTP sites I still get Connection Error 
 10051)
 
 To try this I run two VirtualBox FreeDOS guests.
 
 Guest No. 1:
 
 
 I used a plain FreeDOS 1.1 and booted Menu 1 (Jemmex, no EMS)
 I loaded the VirtualBox packet driver in AUTOEXEC.BAT
 
 LH PCNTPK INT=0x60
 
 I downloaded NDN from http://ndn.muxe.com/download/
 Version: 2010-03-23 - v2.31.5309
 and copied it to C:\NDN
 
 I added C:\NDN to my PATH in AUTOEXEC.BAT  (don't know exactly if this is 
 necessary)
 
 I added a line to C:\NDN\FTP.INI
 
 mtcp [2,0,0,0] ftp://user:password@192.168.1.120
 
 I configured a minimal C:\FDOS\WATTCP.CFG
 
 my_IP = dhcp
 gateway = 192.168.1.1
 
 (The line
 
 SET WATTCP.CFG=C:\FDOS
 
 has to be in AUTOEXEC.BAT)
 
 
 
 Guest No. 2
 
 
 I made sure it has the IP address 192.168.1.120
 I started mTCP ftpsrv
 
 
 
 That's it. 
 In Guest No. 1 I start NDN. 
 Then I hit F10 to get into the menu bar. 
 I choose Manager and Change drive left (or just hit ALT-F1)
 I choose #: FTP-Server
 I go down the menu until the line mtcp is highlighted and then I hit ENTER.
 
 Now NDN connects to mTCP ftpsrv.

Hi,

 The TCP/IP stack used by NDN is
 somewhat exotic (Sabretooth), I never used it before. Looking at the
 various changelogs of NDN and Sabretooth I noticed that these guys have
 put lots of effort into developing their FTP support, so I believe it
 should work, at least within a limited configuration scope... I just
 haven't had time to play with it more. Of course it might be also that
 NDN's FTP support is plain buggy, and we're wasting our time with it,
 who knows.

It's probably just buggy and wasn't fully tested. I wouldn't pin any
huge hopes on it.

 Rugx was mentioning that he got it working fine (I assume it was on
 FreeDOS?), maybe he could provide some experience pointers here...

Unfortunately no. Like I said, I'm terminally useless when it comes to
complicated things, and networking is always complicated.

So your best bet is one of the following:

1). Check the Sabretooth sources.

http://ndn.muxe.com/download/file/stips_1_2_4.rar

2). Ask on BTTR Forum if anyone there has tested (or can further test) it.

3). Contact Stefan Weber directly.
