| 91556 | 2002-10-22 10:16:00 | The deep and dim distant past.... DOS 6 provided Interlink. 2 files were involved - interlnk.exe and intersvr.exe. Also a suitable cable - 3-wire serial cable, a 7-wire null-modem serial cable or a bidirectional parallel cable. I stopped using this before the days of Win 98 so don't know if it would still work. You could try an old DOS book or search for Interlink on Google. It involves changing the Config.sys file. An alternative is: Win 98 Help "Connecting to another computer" "Using Direct Cable...." |

| 91557 | 2002-10-22 10:38:00 | I have a bootdisk with an Etherlink III packet driver and FTP client I use with my [2/3]86. If you can handle the command line FTP client I don't mind sending a copy. But if its just a one off I would go with Laplink it will end up taking less time. If both computers are running in DOS mode it can do 20KBs + compression over a serial connection. |
