It would be possible if you connected the two PC's using a null modem serial cable. I think PCREMOTE (or REMOTEPC not sure what it was called) can work without a modem as long as the cable is made properly. The client should be able to run in a DOS box on a TCP/IP enabled Windows machine. Of

Keep in mind that there is no standard TCP/IP stack for DOS so you may have a bit of a hard time finding remote take over software that will work over the Internet. If you want to dial-up, there is a free solution from PC Magazine (I think it was called something like PCREMOTE).

If you are truly worried about a dos system that can be rebooted and controlled remotely, I would look into a hardware solution. There is a company that makes a isa or pci card that acts as a video controller and translates the dos video to a serial connection. It also has watchdog support.

I used to use CarbonCopy to do that. pre-windoze versions of PcAnywhere were DOS based too, I believe. what apps are you running on the DOS boxes? just text? we actually had a setup where we re-directed command.com's I/O to a serial port and remote controlled a DOS box that way (sort of a poor m

Hi there, Check out PCREMOTE by PC Magazine. It was first published (as far as I know) on January 16th, 1990 and can be found on the web by searching for V9N01.ZIP. The only drawback is that it only works over a COM port. If you can work this into your system, this might just be what you have

I would expect you might see some security concerns about doing that. (That's the way it works - useful usually translates into "insecure" in the Microsoft world). In any case, although there is a port of the viewer to DOS, there is no VNC server. You might want to look at either Carbon Copy
