" I encountered a scrambled disk when using INTERxxx. I was running IBM
"DOS 5 on both machines, but using the INTERxxx files from PC-DOS 6.22.
"There was no trouble on the INTERLNK end (the device driver), when
"receiving files. But I also sent files over to the server (INTERSVR)
"machine, and probably erased some too, with the result a scrambled disk.
"Fortunately it was a RAM drive, not my real hard disk.
Query: Does INTERxxx support RAM-drives? In particular, does
it support the version in DOS 5? I know that it does not support
CD-ROMs; nor did it support an old removable I once had called a
Take-Ten. It seems to support ZIP-Drives if they use the Guest
driver. I suspect an interaction with any loaded drivers on the
host (INTERSVR) m/c. Anybody any further experience?
