mTCP NetDrive is available (2023-12-10)

NetDrive is a DOS device driver that allows you to access a remote disk image hosted by another machine as though it was a local device with an assigned drive letter. The remote disk image can be a floppy disk image or a hard drive image.

Cool, can it also be used to make local block devices remotely accessible and is there a read-only mode to make in particular that mode less risky?

It's a network block device driver for DOS.

* Mount standard disk images (floppy or HD) from a server (Linux or Windows at the moment)
* There is a read-only mode supported either on the server side (mark the image file read-only) or the client side (use a command line option).
* It uses UDP so it's routable - you can attach disk images on remote servers.
* No special permissions required on Unix or Windows.

@ dggionco

mTCP NetDrive is available (2023-12-10)

I've made a few changes to the server side that might be interesting:

* A Linux on ARM server is available now. (The code ran unmodified; I didn't have any little-endian/big-endian screw-ups.)
* A "headless" mode is available for people who don't want to use the text UI on the server.


I'm still doing a lot of refactoring and improving the code so I'm not releasing source code yet. I'd also like to get more feedback from people who have used it before I do release it.

2024-10-20: A new mTCP is available

This version (2024-10-20) allows the original mTCP programs to work at the same time mTCP NetDrive is active. No more having to choose! There are also some smaller improvements a few bug fixes.

The mTCP NetDrive programs are also now included in mTCP. (The mTCP NetDrive servers are still in a separate download.)
