INT 2F CU - NETWORK REDIRECTOR - READ FROM REMOTE FILE
AX = 1108h
ES:DI -> SFT
SFT DPB field -> DPB of drive containing file
CX = number of bytes
SS = DOS DS
SDA DTA field -> user buffer
there is no seek at all.
reading/writing through the network redirector is actually
read XXXX (16 bit) bytes at offset YYYYYYYY (32 bit)
of course you can change this field to have more bits, but are leaving
standard DOS network redirector
