Re: Need to logon to WS2003 from a MSDOS

Thanks for your response. Think I did not explain the point well...

The problem its not the app.cause we can run it from several clients.

I can run the app thats on a Windows server 2003 folder share, from a Vista
client ... from a Xp pro client... from a win98 client. But ... we have a
point in the company where we have a computer registering the time of the
employes where we use a DOS computer, and want to continue using it cause its
very stable. The problem is how can we conect it to the server (WS2003).
(until now we have use a novell server but we are migrating and have this
issue to resolve)

The computer is locked up and the only reacheable thing to people its the
card reader to a security issue thinks its not very important. (It will bee
ok to logon with a user and password in a automated way)

So ... that it ... what we need its "simple"... access with a MSDOS machine
a shared folder in a windows server 2003. (the logon process)

thank you in advance for your response..

I am running a application made in fox for MSDOS in novell 3.11(DOS) and we
are instaling a Windows Server 2003 as a File server, so need to know if
theirs a way to ... without instaling a windows OS (W95,W98, XP...) we
could
logon WINDOWS server 2003 and run this application. Is the only
application
it has to run all day long.

Yes, if the app will run on Win2003 (most will but it is old) -- and Win2003
is a "windows OS".

You may have to use the compatibility settings if there is trouble running
it.
( I can run most everything on Win2003 except programs that do low level
access to hardware.)

The reason think, its clear ... dont need to have a big amount of software
upload, if we are only going to use the application made on MSDOS-FOX
(thats
on a folder on a file server (winser2003)


What we need to know if theirs a way to logon to WinSer 2003 and run the
app
without loading any windows version of OS... ( could it be from DOS..???.)

Win2003 is a version of Windows. (NT 5.2)

thanks
