I would like to know if anyone knows anything about making a Unix machine
a file server for a DOS-based network. I'm trying to hide Unix boxes
as network file servers until the world realizes how great Unix is :)!
I know about PC-Interface and PC-NFS, but the licensing fees are very, very
stiff - why would anyone want Unix at $300.00 a pop if they could have
Novell for less? Any PD products on the net? They just need to provide
Unix file and print services to PCs via a PC-style F: mapped drive to
a Unix file-system (Telnet on TCP/IP won't do, these people want to see
DOS, dir, copy, word, etc....)
Thanks in advance. (Please e-mail leads and I will submit a summary.)
