Anyone have any experience with this? Is there a > 'mount-dos' command for Mac filesystems somewhere? Having a mount_hfs is not sufficient, you will also need a filesystem for that. However, tell your Mac folks to use DOS formatted disks; then you can work with those with mtools or a DOS filesystem. On the Mac, your friends will need to install PC Exchange (part of MacOS 7.5 and avalible for free online).
