- we use ftp's idrive for nfs on the pc's here.
- it can beloaded and unloaded, and loaded high (try quarterdeck's qemm
- to manage the pc's high mem region. it works far better than the dos
- stuff) anyway it uses, ummmmm lets see ... 55984 bytes (which i can
- recover). try qemm. it takes a bit of work, but if you have to support
- pc's well ... it's worth the trouble.
- or
- use ftp's ethernet driver and ftp any files you need. depends on if you
- want file swapping or file system sharing.
