Depends on which command(s) u want to use.

For example NET exists in all 9x OSes, but an NTx command line switch like SEND is not valid in 9x OSEs.

To learn all valid NET options, run:

net /?

Other command line tools that exist, with more or less similar NTx functionality in 9x:

CHOICE.COM

COMMAND.COM

DISKCOPY.COM

DOSKEY.COM

EDIT.COM

FORMAT.COM

KEYB.COM

MODE.COM

MORE.COM

SYS.COM

WIN.COM

ARP.EXE

ATMADM.EXE

ATTRIB.EXE

CARDDRV.EXE

CHKDSK.EXE

CLSPACK.EXE

CMSTP.EXE

CSCRIPT.EXE

CVT.EXE

DEBUG.EXE

DELTREE.EXE

DITRACE.EXE

DOSMGR.EXE

EMM386.EXE

EXTRAC32.EXE

EXTRACT.EXE

FC.EXE

FDISK.EXE

FIND.EXE

FTP.EXE

IEXTRACT.EXE

IPCONFIG.EXE

JVIEW.EXE

LABEL.EXE

MEM.EXE

MOVE.EXE

MSCDEX.EXE

MSDLC.EXE

NBTSTAT.EXE

NET.EXE

NETSTAT.EXE

NLSFUNC.EXE

PING.EXE

PROTMAN.EXE

START.EXE

SUBST.EXE

SULFNBK.EXE

TCMSETUP.EXE

TELNET.EXE

TRACERT.EXE

WALIGN.EXE

WJVIEW.EXE

XCOPY.EXE

XCOPY32.EXE

All files listed above are found on the Windows 98 SE setup CD [example], mostly inside CABs.

Most should be already installed in %windir% or %windir%\system , which means u don't need to type their path names whenever u execute them.

Run them with /? to view their valid options.

Some of these tools work from outside Windows [native/true MS-DOS mode], some work only from within Windows GUI [DOS box], and some work [exclusively] from within CONFIG.SYS or/and AUTOEXEC.BAT.

There are also several internal DOS commands built into COMMAND.COM:

CD

COPY

DATE

DEL

DIR

MD

REN

TIME

VOL

etc...

Besides the MS commands bundled with your OS, you can also find many other [similar] ones on the net [most are free(ware)]:

Hope this helps.
