SOSS, a file server for DOS-based systems which supports version 2 of the
NFS protocol, is free software. You may use it within your organization
for any purpose desired. You may redistribute it to other organizations,
provided you do not earn a profit when doing so, that you make source
code available, and that you abide by the terms of the Gnu General
Public License (see the file COPYING).
Manifest:
exe Contains executables and sample support files
src Source code for NFS
rpc Source code for RPC
lib Microsoft C-built libraries (CMU PC/IP)
include Include files (CMU PC/IP)
d2x Source code and doc for DOS/Unix conversion utilities
doc Documentation for SOSS
To extract the directories shown above, type the following commands
(where "A:" represents the directory or device containing SOSS.ZIP:
mkdir soss
cd soss
unzip -d A:soss
Follow the instructions in INSTALL in order to get things up and
running. The file doc/unixdos.txt is a paper which provides background
on the motivation for creating and enhancing SOSS.
NOTE
The PC/IP software will not run unless you specify both
the IP address and the subnet mask. Use a value smaller
than 24 bits for the subnet; for example, selecting
16 will result in a mask of 255.255.255.0.
A smaller archive containing only the doc, exe, and d2x subdirectories
is also available for those who are not interested in source code.
Microsoft C version 5.1 was used to produce the binaries included here.

Version 3.1 was developed by Richard Braun while working at Kronos,
