I am thinking about buying a cheap 286 machine to strictly run DOS applications. My question is with respect to connectivity between my Xenix based machine and the DOS machine. The best solution I see is to connect them via LAN and have the DOS machine access a U: drive that points directly to the Xenix file system on the other machine. Is this at all possible??? Any suggestions would be appreciated! :^) / o __/ , , , /_(_/_(_(_/_ / -' Jeffrey D. Wood Colorado IC Division jdw@hpfijdw.hp.com (303) 229-6633
