Hi all

I'm using dosemu to provide remote sessions (telnet) to certain dos
applicattion running in my Linux box.

Each Linux client has a binary dosemu installation in the server (what i
need is separate autoexec.bat for each client) plus a Windows98 DOS
(minnimu).

FreeDOS does not work witht this application written in QBasic (invalid
opcode messages). The application is also based in Novell betrieve
register mannager (sort of data base manager).

The point is that the "program" is eating all the CPU. When one session
is working everything looks fine and when more clients get's connected
the CPU is splitted more or less with equals shares:

Examples:

1 clients --> 90% CPU

2 clients --> +/- 45% each 

The problem is that the server machine start to behave badly (stop
sending data through the telnet server) for no apparent reason in
certain situations.

I already tried the hog thing, it's in 1 (default) so i guess i can't
lower it anymore :(

The last thing i tried was to nice the telnet server to 0 just to see if
that helps.

Running the program is no the big thing, the problem arises when we
print using the passhrough printng features of our telnet client (Anzio
Lite).

I sniffed the traffic and yes, the server jus stop sending data.
Somo simillar sympton happens when starting "btrieve". The screen
freezes but at this point if we press Esc, then the application keeps
going as nothing were happen.

Any help would be appreciate it.

Thanks in advance

Guillermo
