Re: [Samba] SAMBA implementation for DOS ?
Hi, thank you all for answers. @Ged and Neal, yes - I considered using DOSBox and/or DOSEMU. This is solution that I will keep away from. The true is that with DOSBox I dont even need to care about network configuration and there is enough memory to run required application. The thing is that my Clipper/dBase application is located on Linux server and shared with SAMBA. 8 nodes (PCs/workstations) are connected to that share. If I use DOSbox, then DOSbox node will always overwrite its changes over dBase/database. Which will erase changes done by other nodes. VirtualBox: as I have written - I have 8 nodes (PCs/workstations). Each of them needs to communicate to Linux/Samba server where application is shared. DOS must have samba client. VB wont help that way. However I do my tests with FreeDOS inside of VirtualBox. @Marc - yes, Im playing around that. So far, on the FreeDOS I have managed to get 485KB of free conventional memory. Application I need to run requires little bit above 500KB. MS Client take most of it... nightmare :( One last chance might be NFS client for DOS... But I was just hoping that there is some old/discontinued Samba project for DOS.

Hello Lukas, thank you for reply. Well, simply Im looking for SAMBA Client for DOS (client that allows me to map share as a drive.)

Re: [Samba] SAMBA implementation for DOS ?
Hello Marc, thank you for reply. I didnt mention that I googled a lot before this post but - yes - I know that site. The only solution that worked for me is MS Client, but this one takes too much memory. @LukasI dont mind for the recent version. My Samba server is very old - version is samba-2.2.12.I need anything that I can map network share and still have some reasonable amount of conventional mem :( BR,czezz It doesn't sound like one has been developed that's compatible withrecent (i.e. within the last decade) versions of the protocol: Dnia 7 maja 2013 17:49 Marc Muehlfeld lt;sa...@marc-muehlfeld.degt; napisał(a): Hello czezz, Am 07.05.2013 15:33, schrieb czezz: gt; Well, simply Im looking for SAMBA Client for DOS gt; (client that allows me to map share as a drive.)

Re: [Samba] Mounting DOSBOX on a remote share
Hello again, it seems that it is somehow related to SAMBA. If I add options noserverino and directio to smbmount then problem is partly solved. I share an old dBase/Clipper program with Samba. This program is used by multiple WinXP,Vista hosts simultaneously. DOSbox can see CIFS/SMB share. It can run the program and use database. New entries added to DB by other hosts appears also at Dosbox (that didnt happend without directio). However, if I create eg. a simple txt file, DOSbox will not see that file (at lease cant list it). But it can display content of that txt file. Any ideas why it is like this ?

Re: [Samba] SAMBA weird situation
No its not a matter of hidden files. Each file has -rwxr--r-- and belong to guest account smbuser But permission doesnt matter here. I can set chmod 777 * and still wont see all files. Share is set to ba accessable to everyone with no authentication.

In Linux, are you using ls -a to show any hidden files? In Linux/unix, if you have r rights on the parent directory you should be able to see all files with ls -a, even the hidden ones (which have a . in front of the file name.) Depending on how samba is configured the x bits on Linux may be used as the DOS hidden or system flags. What version of Linux? What file system on linux?
