I too have been "unofficially" testing dos 5.0 and have a question about
its share.exe

If you don't load it, it doesn't warn about "large media". Unlike dos 4.01,
if its in your root dir (or shell directory), it does not appear to get
loaded automatically. Does this mean dos 5.0 takes care of most sharing
violations (excluding network shares?), and i don't need it? Still playing
it safe for now though...
