I and some other people have problems with running the freedos image included in Ultimate Boot CD (UBCD), when using memdisk for floppy emulation. Memdisk starts booting the image and freedos shows the following menu: 0 Boot Clean 1 Boot UMBPCI (silent) 2 Boot UMBPCI (optimal) 3 Boot UMBPCI (semi-defensive) 4 Boot EMM386 (optimal) 5 Boot EMM386 (semi-defensive) 6 Boot no UMB (defensive) 7 Boot

(FreeDOS developers, I apologize for the redundant parts of this message. But I want to bring the SYSLINUX folks into the discussion, and the SourceForge mailing list archives are broken.) Background: I have a little Sourceforge project (http://unattended.sourceforge.net/) for which I use SYSLINUX to provide CD-ROM and PXE boot support for my boot disk. And it works great with MS-DOS. However,

I am using memdisk to remotely flash the BIOS and other firmware. It works well for most flash programs. After the flash I need to initialize the NIC to send a signal to my management server that the flash is complete. I am curious as to how others have solved this problem. Thanks.

Hello Everyone, I recently installed a MSCLIENT machine each time it writes to my samba 2.04b share it produces all uppercase filenames. Is the best way to handle this with "preserve case = yes/no" controls if new files are created with the case that the client passes, or if they are forced to be the "default" case. Default Yes. "short preserve case = yes/no"

I am planning to release SYSLINUX 2.08 in the next day or so; basically 2.08-pre9 without any further changes. So, I would appreciate any and all testers for this... -hpa

I'm running Samba 2.2.3 with winbind for authentication. Much to my surprise, I found I had a need to connect an MS-DOS system to the network. I'm using MSCLIENT to do so. I can successfully log into the domain and map drives on Windows NT servers, but I'm having trouble mapping Samba shares. Examining the log shows that the DOS machine is apparently trying to connect with a username

Hi, I'm trying to get the above working, without success so far: UNDIS.DOS refuses to load with an invalid NDIS stack message (from memory). keeppxe has some effect: it reduces the available conventional memory by 140 kbytes or so... still, the packet driver doesn't seem to find the interface. Does anybody have a working setup I could look at? -- Thanks, Feri.

Has anybody got some experience with connecting machines running Windows3.1 or WfWG (3.11) to Samba? We would like to run a small lab network with user accounts and a shared printer off the samba box. Samba is running fine and there's no problem to connect to it from the Win95/WinNT machines... Any help appreciated. Frank Wornle, Glasgow Caledonian University Dept. of Engineering

My pxe config: label Firmware menu label Update IPMI firmware kernel memdisk append keeppxe raw iso initrd=<isofile> The ISO is about 400Mb, and works fine when I boot it from an actual CDROM drive. It also boots fine over PXE, I can see FreeDOS being booted up etc. The problem is - once

I'm trying to use this universal DOS TCP/IP boot disk available here: http://members.iinet.net.au/~bdriver/bootdisk/ It requires an MS-DOS formatted disk created by Windows XP. It works great as a floppy but doesn't boot at all with memdisk. The problem can be simplified down to just the XP boot disk. If you make an MS-DOS startup disk with XP on a floppy, dd the floppy to an image

Hello, I read some of your latest articles depending on DOS and Samba. You always mentioned TCP/IP 32, LANMANAGER-Client from IBM and this mysterios MS Client 3.0. What I would like to know is, if there is a MS-DOS IP stack available, which could use a WINS-server and connect to Samba using NETBEUI over IP ??? I use TCP/IP 32 at the moment for my old windows-clients. Problem is, I have some

I need to use a samba server (linux redhat 6.0 ) from a diskless dos machine ( has a floppy drive for booting) . So i need a very little tcp-ip stack for dos and a client for a NT server on dos so that they will be small enough to be on a 1.44 system floppy. Is that possible ? Paul

Hi, Currently I am building a new PXE boot environment and during that I noticed something odd while attempting to boot using one of those universal netbootdisks based on the '3Com Universal NDIS driver v1.00' (aka undis3c) driver. Using pxelinux.0 this works like a charm, but when I switch to gpxelinux.0 the 3Com driver bails out on me... all other configuration is the same. Have
