I would use dos apps xtree/ xtlink if you can get xtree on both
machines. An alternative would be a neat little transfer app which was
part of drdos many years ago. It ran over a null modem cable and had the
ability to install itself on the 'slave' machine over the cable. Now if
i can find my drdos disks......
