I took a look at the DOCs for KopyKat and it looks ver nice for 2
OS/2 machines.  It even works with NETBIOS.  But I called that
company and asked if they had anything to control a Win95 machine
from a Warp4 machine.  Unfortunately they do not.
Any suggestions?
     Thanks and Good Luck,        Andy Roberts
