I would like to be able to network together my SE and my Plus so
that the former could act as a file server for the latter (which
has no hard drive).  I would like to retain the use of both
machines, however, so a dedicated server like Appleshare wouldn't
do it.  And, of course, I'd prefer something a little less
expensive!

I recall past references to "PublicFolder" and "SingleServer".
Do either of these do what I need?

Additionally, what hardware do I need?  I plan to use the phone
wiring to connect the two machines.  Do Phonenet and its clones
actually do anything other than connect to an RJ11 jack?  I'm
quite able to connect a DIN8 plug to a phone cable, heck I could
even add some pad and termination resistors if necessary, if so
what connections do I use?

Thanks in advance for any help.
