I would like to access my office machine which runs OS/2 1.1 SE remotely
from my laptop to do file transfers and execute programs which are too
large to execute on the laptop.  The office machine is equipped with
a modem and Crosstalk XVI (which runs in the DOS window).

Is it possible to operate this kind of OS/2 setup remotely?  Is is possible
to open and close OS/2 windows and switch between those windows and the DOS
Box?  Is interfacing software required?

If anyone has any experience with this sort of thing, I would greatly
appreciate hearing about it.
