Just make a symbolic link in ~/.dosemu/drive_c to point to a common directory. For example: mkdir /opt/dosstuff ln -s /opt/dosstuff ~/.dosemu/drive_c/dosstuff Set your permissions in /opt/dosstuff to whatever you want. Now you can use "cd dosstuff" from a dos prompt within your dosemu window to move to /opt/dosstuff. This gives you the flexibility of having one or many shared dos directories, plus having private dos directories for each user. If you choose to do it the way that I do it, your users will never see a dos prompt. autoexec.bat cranks up a frontend menu that exits with various errorlevels to jump to points in the batch file that change directories (private under ~/dosemu/freedos and shared under /opt) and run programs as needed. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-msdos" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
