Imagine I have a UNIX machine running a program that from time to time
needs to retrieve a file that is sitting on a DOS machine that is networked
via some Ethernet method.  Imagine however that the DOS machine is busy
running some program all the time.  I need to be able to access any file
on the DOS machine even if it is busy running some program.  Is there some
way to do this?  Is there some commercial product (PC-NFS?) that would
allow me to transparently access files on any DOS machine that happened
to be a part of the same network my UNIX (SCO UNIX probably) machine was
on?  I am looking for a shareware or commercial program that can run maybe
as a TSR in DOS to monitor requests for files or directory listings from
remote but networked UNIX machines.

All suggestions/advice welcome!!!
