Maybe off-topic but maybe someone can point me in the right direction.
I'm need to transfer on regulary files to a legacy DOS application (actualy a WIN98 in DOS mode). At the moment the only solution i see to transfer the files by floppy between the systems.
So i"m wondering if there exists a "blackbox', that emulates a IDE drive on one side (ea the DOS box sees a hard drive or floppy) , but that excepts up and downloads over ethernet (or acts a a USB slave drive) over another port.
Does not seem technicaly impossible, but i don't see that much use for it beside an legency application like mine.
Other option would be to run some 'virtual' drive in the background, but the system is doing critical (motion control) stuff under dos, so i would like to stay away from running other things. (anyway, can DOS run two apps at the same time ?)
Thanks for any advice,
Stan
