Re: Transfer files DOS <-> Windows

Hi,
I have an idea and a question:
Is it possible to use a SLIP packet driver and a
TCP/IP stack and a FTP client (on the DOS PC) that
upload the files to a Windows FTP server on the
Windows PC?

The reason is, I'm implementing the following programs
for DOS:
NSLookup
WWWGet
Telnet
Finger
Ping

I could always write an FTP client!

These should run on any Ethernet card with a driver
(even Gigabit ethernet cards!) and PPP, SLIP, IDSN and
ADSL!

So, Please, reply, and tell me whether my efforts are
in vain!
Cheers,
Kurt Zammit
