From: Joe Caverly on 3 Sep 2005 12:10 Hi, Using the instructions from http://www.wown.com/j_helmig/doscltcp.htm I have successfully setup an MS-DOS 6.22 system with TCP/IP and a network card. I can PING various Internet web sites with no problem. I would like to do more than PING. Under Win98SE, I have used excellent freeware console utilities such as GRABURL.EXE to download web pages from the console, and HTMSTRIP.EXE to convert the HTML code to plain text. I would like to know if there are any 16-bit equivalents to these 32-bit utilities, which I can use with the MS-DOS 6.22 TCP/IP. Lacking this, does anyone know of documentation that outlines what Interrupts to call so as to access the MS-DOS 6.22 TCP/IP from Turbo Pascal 7.0 for DOS, MS-COBOL 4.5 for DOS, or QuickBASIC 4.5 for DOS? I have googled, but could not find any Interrupt calls for MS-DOS 6.22 TCP/IP specifically. Lots of info on other TCP/IP stacks for DOS, but none for the MS-DOS 6.22 TCP/IP stack. Also, if anyone knows of any 16-bit DOS programs that use the MS-DOS 6.22 TCP/IP, such as email, ftp, web browsers, etc., please pass this along. Note that I have tried Arachne, but it only works with modems, not network cards. New Deal Office also only works with modems, but it is not freeware. Thanks, Joe

Not even in http://users.pandora.be/mydotcom/library/network/dostcpip.htm ? (sorry for the blank space) I think it looks interesting Gabriele Neukam Gabriele.Spamfighter.Neukam(a)t-online.de -- Ah, Information. A property, too valuable these days, to give it away, just so, at no cost.

So it is not hopeless :) laurent

Especially ME should do well for paranoide internet-user. The best IMO for DOS, is Novell Netware. Kind Regards, Daniel Mandic

Itýs not free but one of the best DOS. Very fast and capable.... Best Regards, Daniel Mandic |
