Does anyone know if it is possible to easiliy, cheaply (if you already have a
VAX), and transparently use a MicroVAX as a file server for an IBM PC running
MS-DOS using a normal serial port hardwire connection?

Forgive me if this is a stupid question.  If it is, I would like to be given
some additional suggestions on how to use a MicroVAX as a file server.
