DOS based program running in network win 2000

[Guest]

I have a DOS based program that is currently running on Windows 2000. I later
network with another computer and try to run that program through "computers
near me" in "my network places" using sharing files in computer(1). When
activate the .exe file, then program did not run on computer(2). Did I forget
to do something? I even try program similar to "pc anywhere" the program
still not start. It seems like the program did not start on the DOS
envirement of computer(2). Please help. You help is much appreciated.

You didn't mention what privilege or permissions are involved. Is NTFS the
file system? What permissions if so? What user rights is incoming session
connecting with?

If permisions and privileges are in corcordance with the requirements needed
to run the console application over the network, analyze what the program
needs to run. Download Process Explorer from sysinternals and check whether
the application relies on dynamic dlls.

Is the other computer an XP machine?
There seem to be limitations on running DOS applications under XP on other
puters.
