DOS File Transfer

I am not aware of any DOS program to help you out. DOS does not handle any networking protocol.

Give me more information in why you want to do this, and I will try to help you out if possible.

Good luck and have a great day.

DOS comes with interlnk.exe intersvr.exe files you can use them to transfer the files.
usage details are available in DOS help.

If you are using Lantastic 6.0, and I would assume the same would go for later versions, then in the 6.0 Book, goto page 173, and create a "Shared disk". I believe it would be in the "Resources" screen. Then you could access it from your Win98 machine and transfer the entire folder directly.

I used Lantastic before I switched everything here to NT Server 4.0 on all of our servers.

I don't use Win98, but you may also have to Map the shared Lantastic drive in the Win98 networking screen in "Control Panel".

Good luck

You could just setup a seriel connection and use something like hyperterminal to connect in. You still may not be able to download the file, but once connected your should be able to run any commands like you were sitting there...just type or cat the file and let a capture buffer record it all.

I would also look for things like a ftp or telnet the server to see if I can transfer that way. Your 98 machine will have both of these protocols available ot use

If the "DOD Server" is a network operating system then it should have routines to allow File and print sharing.It will also be running a Network protocol . If you have this information then you can install the same protocol on Win98 and a client forDOD server ( should ship with the DOD server ) with properties set to log on to the DOD server .You can share the file in DOD server and Once logged on you can Map a drive from Win98 to copy it . This is similar to the way you transfer files betweentwo win98 machines .

Good luck !!!!!

Laplink 5.0 was a strickly DOS version if you could scare up a copy I would think that all you would have to do is start the 98 PC in DOS mode and your server with a Boot disk and then run the Laplink. Also Touchstone Software(They're known for theCheckIt
program) has a cable transfer program called FastMove that comes with a DOS version.

Good Luck.
