I am studying to become an MCSE, and in the process have setup a 
network at home.  Right now I have NT Server 4.0 on a 133mhz Cyrix 686 
with 32 megs, Ram acting as a free standing server (not a PDC), a 386 
sx/33 with 8megs RAM running WFWG as one workstation, and am trying to 
also add my DOS based BBS machine to the network.  I tried using the 
Client Wizard in NT to provide the MS-DOS client software for the BBS 
machine.  There were many errors in the files created, but by tweaking 
the system.ini and protocol.ini files it created for the client I can 
at least get the DOS machine to connect to the server and I can access 
files on the server with the Net Use command.  However, the server 
cannot see the DOS machine in Network Neighborhood.  Someone told me 
that this is because the DOS machine is not running any server services 
but I don't know about this.  I think I should at least be able to SEE 
it.  My net is a Workgroup not a Domain.
     Beyond that though, is the problem of all the memory taken up by 
the MS-DOS network client.  After I load it, even running Memmaker as I 
was advised to, I only have 170k free!  Not enough to even load 
Desqview!  After running QEMM's Optimize program I then have about 440k 
free which is enough to open DV but not enough to then open even one of 
my BBS nodes.  The DOS machine is a 90 MHZ Pentium with 24 Megs RAM, 
running Desqview 2.70 and 3 nodes of PcBoard 15.30.  I use Hyper Disk 
for a disk cache with a 6 MB cache.
     I believe I need to use a different Network client.  Can someone 
advise me on a better setup for a network client on my BBS (DOS) 
machine?  TIA.
