Hello Samba users, I use FreeDOS with MS Client to map a network drive. However MS Client is a memory hog and prevents me to run all applications I need. Therefore I would like to ask here is there SAMBA implementation for DOS ? BR, czezz

You're looking for a SMB-Client implementation? Samba is a SMB/CIFS Server... regards Lukas
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 <samba at marc-muehlfeld.de> napisa?(a): Hello czezz, Am 07.05.2013 15:33, schrieb czezz: > Well, simply Im looking for SAMBA Client for DOS > (client that allows me to map share as a drive.) I haven't used DOS in a network environment for a long time, so I can't recommend anything. But Google gave me this page: http://www.jacco2.dds.nl/samba/dos.html Maybe you find there something usefull. Regards Marc

Then you can do whatever you want with drives, mapping, NAS, or whatever. I use it a lot for an old application that I wrote over twenty years ago, it does everything that I need. Alternatively you could try VirtualBox, which will let you do similar things with drives but I don't know how flexible it is. -- 73, Ged.
