1. you need an appropriate cable (not your printer cable, but I do not
know the name of it)
2. load interlnk.exe (from MS-DOS) as a device in config.sys on the
client
3. run intersvr.exe (from MS-DOS) on server
4. Access the server as additional drives on the client (eg. in file
manager)
In order to save memory you may add specifications in a commandline to
the programs. On my client interlnk.exe uses 9K of upper memory. The
server is blocked during the connection.
