David,
Yes…you can connect them via the serial ports…using a NULL
modem cable.
BUT, the question is, what do you plan on doing once they're
connected? If it's to transfer files…then you need to run a terminal
program on each end. If it's to have the MS-DOS machine act as a terminal
to the Amiga, then you need to mount a device (such as AUX:) and open a CLI
with input and output going to AUX:, if it's to network…then you need
common networking software on each machine, and if it's anything
else…then you'll have to let us know what you want to do before anyone
could tell you how (of if it can be done) to do it.
Don
