Hello,
I'm trying to use DosBox for run an old DOS based DB Application, running over network via IPX. The application start correclty but i've a problem:

My application require that the max file handled is up to 180, but the dosbox start with a 110 value. In native MS-DOS was possible to modify this value in the config.sys file.

Someone kwow if is possible to modify it in DosBox?

thank to everyone'll help me!!

Rael

you can only change it by recompiling.
I have no idea what the negative side effects will be
as files higher then 127 will be considered to network files.
(we don't support those)

We don't support it. 180 files is just way too high.
The original programmers should have programmed it better.

Sorry

Just a shot in the dark....

set a variable called CLIPPER to something like this....

SET CLIPPER=F80

and see what happens.
