-
- I use it all the time bettween my A4000 and my sisters A1200 all you have
- to do is create a new mountlist file in devs: as described in the docs.
- I suspect you could create a dos driver for each networked drive you want
- to mount, however I find it eaiser just to mount the partitions from a short
- script using the mount command which refers to the devs:mountlist.
-
- Pronet works really well bettween these systems, and is much eaiser to use
- than parnet as it mounts each drive on the remote machine. The only trouble
- I have is that it becomes unstable if one end of the link crashes.

- I hope this helps, if you need more detailed information please feel free
