Re: Connection using DOS
Originally posted here by TheDreamer

No, your "ping" and "netstat" are WINDOWS commands (Unix originally obviously), they are not part of DOS, nor do they run in DOS.
The Windows command prompt is not a DOS prompt. Although you can run some dos programs from there, many of the programs are in fact Windows 32-bit console mode applications.
IT IS NOT DOS
Ok, glad we've cleared that one up

OK. there is a neat little utility called netcat. It is available for unix,
and for windows.

In windows, it runs as a command line application,
so you could say it runs in DOS, but not plain DOS, a DOS
window under windows.
Both you and your friend must have it installed on your own computers
and be connected to the net. The executable is NC.EXE
One of you types this command nc -l -p 1234
where "1234" is an arbitrary port number. 1234 would work, in fact.
The second guy types (on his computer) nc <ip address> 1234
where "ip address" is his buddies ip address.
now the two of you can type anything you want and it appears on each
others screen.
type CONTROL-C to break the connection.
I came in to the world with nothing. I still have most of it.
