An MS-DOSclient that provides transparent redirection of printing and file accesses to a network server. It handles levels 3, 4 and 5 of the {Open Systems Interconnect} seven layer model. A DOS requester under Novell NetWare will interface to a network card driver with an ODI interface, and will be either a single executable (netx.exe) or a set of VLMs that are loaded on demand. In the IBM/MicrosoftLAN Manager/SMB world, where the name DOS redirector is more common, there will be an NDIS interface driver and a net.exe executable. {NetWare Client 32 for DOS/Windows (http://developer.novell.com/research/appnotes/1996/may/01/)}. .
