cnetdrive-server

cnetdrive-server is a standalone UDP server for the mTCP NetDrive DOS client.

This tree has been updated for compatibility with the newer NetDrive DOS client builds, including:

• protocol v3 request and response framing
• larger I/O sizes used by current clients
• correct WRITE_VERIFY reply behavior for VERIFY ON

Build

./configure
make

Run

Serve exports from the current directory:

./cnetdrive serve

Serve exports from a specific directory:

./cnetdrive serve -root ./exports

Useful options:

• -root DIR or -image_dir DIR or -export_dir DIR: export root directory
• -port N: UDP port, default 2002
• -max_sessions N: maximum concurrent sessions
• -timeout N: idle session timeout in seconds

DOS Client Example

Export Notes

• Disk images are served from the export root by filename.
• Host folders can also be exported by directory name.
• Make an image read-only with filesystem permissions.
• Add <image>.session_scoped next to an image to keep writes session-local.
• Add <image>.journal next to an image to enable checkpoints.
