We have been using PC-NFS from SUN microsystems to connect our DOS
machines to an Ethernet NFS system.  PC-NFS provides us with client
capability for the DOS machines.  We can remote mount on our NFS server
in DOS and also use TELNET FTP etc.  I have found installation to be
straightforward and the utilities to be adequate.  I think the price
was around $300.  I don't know if they support token ring, but its
a place to start.
