debian 4.0 + dosemu 1.0.2.1
Hi all,
I'm trying to compile dosemu "ancient" version 1.0.2.1 on debian 4.0 but with no success, has someone else done it before? How?
Thank you in advance
Regards

Because I've an old clipper application that must work in client-server mode throught IPX (mars-nwe). In an old redhat9 server it worked fine, with dosemu1.0 and msdos5.0 that connects itself to the netware share (same as the remote clients); but with dosemu1.4+freedos, I can't use the netware tools to connect to the share because they need msdos 3 to 5 and don't work with freedos.
Using the msdos5.0 on dosemu1.4, results in very slowly execution of the clipper application (I don't understand why...) so now last chance is to use dosemu1.0 with msdos5.0, that are known to work fine with that clipper application.

dosemu versions prior 1.2 were very unstable. It's just not good idea.
I use msdos 6.0 with netware client from novell.com
(http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/tools/downloads/dw271e.zip) - try this one before trying sth else. Check also if increasing hogthreshold value in your config file helps.

Usually, it's better to think in terms of goals rather than means to achieve them. If you state your goal (needs, requirements) and ask for help you are likely to get more useful information.

So, how about asking how to make dosemu work fast enough for your app to succeed? Maybe someone knows how to make it work with MSDOS 5.0 fast enough, or how to make freedos work faster, or sth like that.
