Networking FreeDOS - Others
While the mentioned categories about networking DOS systems should
cover most programs, there are a few exceptions. One of them is
"Invisible LAN", (see: http://www.invisiblesoft.com/invlan/index.shtml)
a NetWare-like DOS application that even comes with an own protocol
called "TransBIOS".
Another special solution for quick getting a network up and running are
network bootdisks. They are able to work with a broad range of hardware
and use multiple protocols. Bootdisks are mostly used for backup, restore
and repair. They can be extremely helpful.
Examples are:
* Bart's Network Boot Disk (see: http://www.nu2.nu/bootdisk/network/)
* Drivesnapshot (see: http://drivesnapshot.de/en/index.htm)
* Netbootdisk (see: http://www.netbootdisk.com/)
The legal situation is unfortunate: Some packages seem to include
files from MS client, while Microsoft's license does not allow such
distribution.
