DOS Client to Samba Server?

[David Atkinson]

Michael,
The company I work for uses something much like you probably want. At our
laptop repair site there is a disk (multiple copies of the same disk) that
boots dos and brings up networking (off the disk) then runs ghost off the
network to do a pre-load of the machine. The disk is based on the Microsoft
Client which is on the Microsoft website. It can also be made up on a WinNT
server (I think it is one of the options under administrative tools) As for
the preload disk I'll try and obtain a copy for you to look at, but it has
only Xircom (PCMCIA) network drivers.

Regards,
David Atkinson

Does anyone have info or links to data on connecting a real DOS client to a
Linux Samba server?

If so, is there any options to NOT have a static IP address on the DOS side?
I
would like to make some sort of generic bootable image that does not need an
IP
address set into it for each computer one visits with the disk.

TIA!
