I know of two ways that you could do it if the Amigas are located on
the same site but I think you will have a very difficult time finding 
such a system to work over phone lines.  If the machines are at the same
site Ameristar Technologies has both ethernet and a proprietary token ring
local area network.  This allows different Amigas to share soft and hard 
resources.

The best you can do over phone lines is to use off the shelf or custom
communications software.

HAL hears the Amiga9000 series is not selling. "Please explain Dave. Why 
aren't Amiga9000's selling?" Bowman hesitates, "You aren't IBM compatible."
