Network Setup is not trivial in DOSBox without applying patches e.g. NE2000 NIC interface. But anyway, it is possible; at least with slip/PPP over serial or with packet driver shim over IPX. In the followings, ubuntu linux host is assumed at least when slip or ppp is used.
HOWTOs
- PPP configuration on linux host
- Slip configuration on linux host
- Tunneling over DOSBox builtin IPX feature (tunneling in tunneling, despite this, it is the simplest to deploy)
Networking Applications
- Bobcat/Lynx browser
- mIRC16 v4.72 16bit IRC client (Windows 3.11)
- mTCP DOS application collection (see more at Slip configuration on linux host)
- X-Appeal - X server application
Operating Systems
- Almost all DOSes that work in DOSBox using serial packet driver or SHIMs to ODI/NDIS for certain applications
- Microsoft Windows 3.11 with Winsock
- QNX4 demofloppy - modem version (with ppp setup, a standalone live operating system on one floppy)
- Minix2 16bit ppp demo - Minix2 operating system demo with modem and slip support - slip setup despite its name
