You'll find SUBST (and probably JOIN as well) only work in the current
DOS session. Any new DOS sessions don't see the new drive, and the command
can't be used from a OS2 commandline at all. Makes the whole thing totally
useless to me.
I've resorted to just maping it as a network drive. However I had to steal
16meg RAM off the other computer to do it, because Peer and TCP/IP under
Connect are so bloated that OS2 goes from smooth operation to not at all,
without extra RAM.

OS/2's subst is in \MDOS in case you didn't realise.
