Hi,

I have a need to linkup two 486 PC's running IBM DOS 6.3 using their serial
ports (in a null modem fashion). I want one of the PC's to be able to access
the other one's ressources, especially the hard disk and the CD-ROM drive.
Then I just want to transfer files from one to another in an easy fashion.

Any suggestion as to the best way of acheiving this ? What is the best
software for this (preferably freeware or shareware) ?

Thanks for any help and advice you will give me.
