Please add to this question: I think that the problem with LREDIR is the same with network. My question is: Will someday FreeDOS support network assigned drive letters, using Netware VLM.EXE, MS-Client, LANtastic, etc? IMHO this is a good step in the direction of thin workstations.
The solution I'm using is: mgetty+sendfax, samba and X-Deep/32 (a X Server for Win32). I install a simple PS printer on Windows (Apple LaserWriter) and point it to a Samba queue that is configured to pop-up a Gtk+ application on the sender of the job, asking for fax information. A cron job that calls faxrunq do the rest.
I'll be downloading it soon, but I hope that they have fixed the tilde and cedilla problem that occurs since version 4.0 (3.x haven't any support for dead key composing). Please, if anybody can set the keyboard to Brazililan International and language to Portuguese, test the sequences: (acute)(c) for a ccedilla "ç", and (tilde)(a) for "ã", and (tilde)(o) for "õ". You must have the XKB extension of XFree working.
