In theory. Out of curiosity I booted two Compaq Contura Aeros, installed 
intersvr and interlnk and tried it. It didn’t work for me so far. The intersvr 
machine runs great. But on the one with interlnk I get an error after loading 
the driver in FDCONFIG.SYS with 

DEVICE=C:\INTERLNK.EXE /AUTO /NOPRINTER

dos mem corrupt
panic: mcb chain corrupted
system halted

The error was only visible when both computers were NOT connected. If I connect 
both computers over LPT and boot again the interlnk machine just freezes.

I tried with memory managers on and off and even with a nearly empty 
AUTOEXEC.BAT and FDCONFIG.SYS (well the SHELL command was the only other line 
in it).

I confess, both machines are still running FreeDOS 1.0, so maybe it’d work with 
FreeDOS 1.1. And both Aeros have the 16 MB RAM extension module installed, 
which unfortunately has a bug by design. So it may work with different hardware 
and if you try hard enough.

Filemaven, which Eric suggested, worked for me out of the box and without 
changing FDCONFIG.SYS. So try it, if you don’t need the intersvr program 
running as TSR in the background and providing you with a drive letter for the 
remote machine. 

regards

PS: Wow, I still had the centronics cable and the LPT adapter in a box!
