Hi Bryan & Frank,

Thanks for creating the network zip :-) What is in that start bat file and which packages with which licenses are required to make this become a reality? > I had worried that the DOS machine on my network, would > give easy access from the Internet for gremlins! Because DOS normally does not run any servers, there is not much which the gremlins could access. So it depends on which servers you manually start on DOS: I guess the plans to talk to your printer will not require anything server-style to run on DOS, so you should be safe :-) Regards, Eric _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
