Norton Ghost from DOS
 

Hey Now!
Ghost 7.5 Enterprise edition.
I trying to ghost 20 machines using DOSGHSRV (the dos version of Ghost). The machines connect. I see 10.10.10.xx mac address for for all the machines. I mash the any key and the process begins. When it finishes, the server (the PC I ran DOSGHSRV on) reports 10.10.10.xx success for SOME of the machines not all and then just hangs or sometimes reports a GPF. The clients still have the Blue ghost status screen. When I reboot the the clients all is well, they did in fact ghost.

Anybody seen this? Anybody use DOSGHSRV? It works just fine if I fire up the Windows version

uhh, no. I once used quite extensively, and never encountered that behavior. but i get the impression that it is working, so is there a problem, or no??

sounds like there was some fruitcake problem that fixed itself and he wanted to know why. When that happens to me i am just happy and shut up about it 8)

is there something similar to norton ghost that is free?

Ghosting from DOS
 

The windows version of ghost works fine. It's the DOS version that doesn't work properly. I would prefer to use the DOS version so I could more fully automate the ghosting process

i had ghost, but couldn't figure out how to use it heh.. and i didn't really need to learn, so i just use partition magic.
