Hi John,
On 12-Mar-98, at 21:48:00, John Rambo was talking about
dos based land (peer-2-pe to Walter Co
 JR> I was under the impression that DOS (6 or 6.2) included a interlnk
 JR> (or very similar) that allowed exactly two PCs to network.
From what I remember, if you run interserver on one machine and interlink
on the other, the machine running interlink has access to the drives on the
machine running interserver. The drawback is that you can't actually use
the machine running interserver for anything other than being an extra
drive or two for the machine running interlink. I suppose you could connect
as many interlink PC's as the interserver 'puter has serial ports, but they
wouldn't be able to talk to each other directly.
I know this message seems a bit long-winded, but what do you expect with
words like 'interserver' and 'interlink'? :)
Cheers,
Tom
