Can you make TINY support the Microsoft DOS Network Client 3.0 TCP/IP stack?

Thanks to Mark Phinney at cflsb.com, I now have the Microsoft TCPIP SDK files so in theory it should be possible to make TINY work with this stack. Unfortunately, it looks like the Microsoft stack limits the packet size to 1400 bytes so it would take some effort to make it work efficiently. If you REALLY need to get TINY working on this stack, let me know and maybe we can make it a project. Luckily the Novell stack is free and good, so most people are happy with it.

UPDATE: Chris McFarling has been able to get the MS Client running concurently with the Novell Client32! This means that you can have a DOS machine that runs TINY and can log into a Windows server. The only real downsides here are (1) it uses more memory, and (2) it is more complicated, but you really can’t beat this solution if this is what you need. You can download his VIrtual PC floppy image file here, and then boot it up on your machine and take a look to see how he did it and adapt it to your configuration. You’ll nee
