Networking
Massimo,
Hmmm – I have only used ParNET twice, so won't say that it is the best
solution for you, but, if all you need is access to the file system of the
other machine, it should be adequate enough to accomplish that (in a two
machine, only, environment).
You can even execute programs across "the cable", but you will loose
locallized ASSIGN's and assumed directory references (eg; initialization
files in the S: directory, which would point to the local machine, not the
one where the program (file) was being executed (read) from).
I have no experience with running a BBS and trying to use ParNET, but
perhaps someone else does or can offer you so more insight (?).
