This doesn't surprise me, floppies are notorious for corrupting files and
going bad after very little use!!

Ok, now this is weird
Copied all the files to a new floppy disk. Made no changes whatsoever.
All works..
Years ago, I once remember thinking how good it will be when we finally
get rid of DOS......
Thanks for your help guys!

Looking at one of my old boot disks, I load the emm386 memory manager /
mapper:-
device=a:\net\emm386.exe (in config.sys)
I also load dos high, and in upper memory block:-
DOS=HIGH,UMB (in config.sys)
See if that works?
Also, I have nothing like the same number of net calls you have, I just
have:-
net initlialize
nwlink (don't ask, it was a dark time in my life, I'm OK now apart from
the scars and the flashbacks... ;-)) net logon
then a net use.
