Or perhaps not depending on how often others deal with this. Will try to ask the question clearly enough. When I travel I use an IBM thinkpad 560, in fact I asked about things here before it was all configured. Recently I upgraded my modem / Ethernet card to a 3c562. My intention is to use the same setup I use on my desktop for Ethernet work, fining the drivers was no issue, and the ssh2021b package will more than work at least allowing me to TELNET to my shell service. I am presently running dos 6.22 on this laptop, but will switch to freedos if it solves the situation I am about to describe. When one is traveling one must agree to the terms of service involved in using say a hotel's Ethernet setup. to do this, one needs a browser package etc. I know there is a solution for this, aside from Arachnid, there should be one for lynx, that gives you the functional browser for networking capabilities. Referenced on the pages of doslynx, are different dos packages that give you what you need, I believe? basically ppp/ip, with a very text focused browser. Arachnid is out for me, will not work with a screen reading package. However are ther other options giving you a small simple ppp/ip package with a dos browser for this goal? anyone tried ebrowse for example? I think the more current editions are Linux focused, but there was a dos one at one time. If I have failed to ask the question clearly enough, let me know. thanks, Karen
