Oh, and I was hoping that this would work:

the same program already <g>)

C->R is my 8.4GB HD (divided into 512MB partitions)
S is often my RAMDrive
So that leaves T for Interlnk.
Of course my CD comes in as the next in line - most often that's T but
could in theory be U). I can also state that when you cross over Z you'll
get not one but two error messages pointing this out for you when you boot.
I think I need to move things around in my normal.bat (called from
autoexec.bat). I can warn everyone directly that (atleast in my case)
running interlnk in a BATch file will *skip* the next line! (I don't have a
RAMDrive as I write this - and it's supposed to be T now).

It sounds reasonable to me.
So a new question then: where can I find an alternative to
interlnk/intersvr? (that's freeware/PD)
I bet noone here would believe me if I state the price a (lpt) cable for
this use cost - ca 45 USD! (Luckily I've borrowed mine from a friend)
Perhaps this would all be easier if I could use my 8.4GB HD in the 386
(untested - but since I can specify the size shouldn't it work?) and insert
a NIC in it and take it to school and unplug one of the computers there
from the Net ;-)
