No real trick to it. Open Connections -> Network Services -> Shared
Resources and Network Connections.  
Go to the SHARES page, select CREATE SHARE and click on SERIAL DEVICE.
 Select the port you want share - it must be an installed port on the
sharing machine, but it can be a virtual port if you use SIO.  Click
OK.  Give it a description and check manage access to make sure it is
available to whoever you want to share it with.  Keep selecting OK
until you get back to the base page.  The port should now appear in the
list of shares and should be active.
One the client machine, go to the CONNECTIONS page of the same
notebook.  Select CREATE CONNECTION. Select SERIAL DEVICE and the
appropriate server.  Move down and select a comm prot number to alias
it to - it will have to be one not currently defined on the client
machine.  Click OK all the way out and the client machine now has a new
comm port - at least for OS/2 programs.  
Now, if I can just work out how to make DOS and WINOS2 sessions see
this alias port, I'll be home free and my daughter will be off my case
- for a while.
