I can't see anything in the NT root directory when I use NTFSDOS. The Docs
say that LFNs will appear as blank enteries, but I cannot even see the WINNT
directory. This of course is with DRDOS 7.03. I could make an RxDOS boot
diskette and see if it would work with LFNs. Guess for now I could use some
MS DOS version to do this. I still have the MSDOS v6.0 floppies laying
around here somewhere.

I dumped OS/2 WARP 3 w/Bonus Pack. Everytime I wanted something for it to
use on the internet and claim it was OS/2, it turned out to be some 16 bit
WINDOZE piece of crap. Who want to run 16 bit apps on a 32 bit OS???? I
could have probably installed 3.11 for 32 bit WINDOZE crap, but that would
probably have been slower under OS/2 than installing and running 3.11
separately. I have the 3.11 WFWG version. Seems really, really stupid to me
to run 16 bit apps on a 32 bit OS. Just use DOS and go fast for 16 bit. That
is the main reason I switched to Linux back in 1995. Also OS/2 Warp 3 was
not designed for communcations, you had to purchase a bunch of third party
stuff to make it work decently, like SIO. (duhhh!)
