Hello! I've been following the discussions in this group about
implementations of NFS for DOS. We are switching over from 3Com 3+ to Unix
as server for our DOS machines, and are trying to assemble an overview on
what there is out there. Has anyone been keeping track? Even maybe a
scoreboard? The questions which we need answered are the following:
1. How much memory does the TCP/NFS implementation require on the DOS side?
2. How good is the telnet implementation?
3. Is there a POP/SMTP client associated with the package?
4. Is there packetdriver or NDIS support?
5. What ethernet cards are supported directly?
6. Is there printer redirection support? Does it work with the lpr
protocol?
7. Is there the possibility to use a PC as lpr print server?
I realize that not all of these need to be contained in one neat package, and
something good and solid in the public domain is not ruled out. If people
reply via e-mail, and no one has done it already, I'll put together a
scorecard and summary.
Thanks in advance, and sorry to bring this up _again_ :-)
