How can I add a DOS macine to a Windows peer to peer network? All I need is
to copy files from the DOS machine to one of the windows machines. Using a
shared printer would also be nice, but not neccessary.

P.S. I have mixed 98SE and XP machines talking nicely on the network now.
Is running a parallel cable to one of the windows machines and running
laplink or Ebox the only option. I would prefer to be able to use ethernet
and make things work.

I know there is a boot disk available (google it as I forget where I had it
before) that loads some dos drivers for a network card and can then connect
to a NT share (maps a drive)
