Description

The pcidossvr.ip process maintains an exclusive dialog with BRIDGE.DRV on a personal computer. The file executes UNIX commands on behalf of the personal computer user and transmits the results back to the personal computer. The extension ``.ip'' indicates that the connection is over a LAN.

pcidossvr.ip on the remote host translates the user's standard DOS system calls into appropriate UNIX operating system calls, executes them on behalf of the user, translates the results back into standard DOS, and returns the results to the user via BRIDGE.DRV.

The options can be entered from the command line.
