   I,m not sure why no one has answered this question properly,
 unless I just dont understand it correctly ??.

    Anyway, the Question: how to (access/use) a dos partition from vpix
                          using ISC2.2 Unix ?

    Answer: Add this line to your /usr/vpix/default/vpix.cnf file , or each
            users $HOME/vpix/vpix.cnf file,

D	/dev/rdsk/0p0"

            This accesses the first partition on the first hard disk, which
            is where I,m assuming you have your DOS partition at.  If not
            change as needed.

            Make sure the permissions on /dev/rdsk/0p0 are as you want,
            then let'em rip.

PS: I wont mention the security issues at hand.
