Now, that's a good question.  B-]

I _thought_ that I required Share to copy files from my WfW311 box over to
the XPP box (so that I could burn a backup CD set of my DOS/4DOS/WfW system
-- WfW doesn't support USB 2.0 nor my external CD burner).

I was able to find a 16-bit version of Total Commander (for WfW) that is
compatible with the 32-bit version on the XPP box.  I created four shared
folders on the XPP that are representative of the drives on the WfW and I'm
able to copy everything over to the XP across the network #_*without*_#
Share being loaded.

           Cheers ... Gerald
