Greetings ...

Has anyone ever got command line only Windows 95 DOS to connect to a Samba machine? I can connect to an NT machine no problem using "net use ...", but the only machine the DOS machine will see on the network is the NT machine; all of the others, including my Linux machines and a Win 2k machine, it just refuses to see.
First, any program you try to run using just W9X DOS and SMB networking, would have to use a very small memory footprint. MicroSoft's DOS network client is pretty big.

I hate to show you another network system, but using freeDOS for the client OS, and using an odi base client network, I have found a little easier on the memory needs ... You should then be able to use Novel's client software and mars-nwe ( http://www.compu-art.de/download/mars_nwe.html )for the Linux server, which should give you file and print server.

Not a perfect solution, but very nice for old and small systems which still need networking.
