subject: Sharing comm ports

I'm trying to share a com port across a Warp 4 Peer setup such that a
WinOS2 app can access a modem via the network (I HATE stringing phone
wires!).  The sharing works fine with OS/2 apps - they use the modem
slick as can be - but I have yet to be able to get a DOS/WIN app to be
able to use the port.  Am I missing something obvious or is this a lost
cause?
