Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

                                  INTERSVR
 
Starts the Interlnk server.
 
Syntax
 
    INTERSVR [drive:[...]] [/X=drive:[...]] [/LPT:[n|address]]
    [/COM:[n|address]] [/BAUD:rate] [/B] [/V]
 
To copy Interlnk files from one computer to another, use the following
syntax:
 
    INTERSVR /RCOPY
 
Parameter
 
drive:
    Specifies the letter(s) of the drive(s) that will be redirected. By
    default, all drives are redirected.
 
Switches
 
/X=drive:
    Specifies the letter(s) of drive(s) that will not be redirected. By
    default, all drives are redirected.
 
/LPT:[n|address]
    Specifies a parallel port to use. The n parameter specifies the number
    of the parallel port. The address parameter specifies the address of the
    parallel port. If you omit n or address, the Interlnk server uses the
    first parallel port that it finds connected to the client. If you
    specify the /LPT switch and omit the /COM switch, the server searches
    only for parallel ports. By default, all parallel and serial ports are
    scanned.
 
/COM:[n|address]
    Specifies a serial port to use. The n parameter specifies the number of
    the serial port. The address parameter specifies the address of the
    serial port. If you omit n or address, the Interlnk server searches all
    serial ports and uses the first port that it finds connected to the
    client. If you specify the /COM switch and omit the /LPT switch, the
    server searches only for serial ports. By default, all parallel and
    serial ports are scanned.
 
/BAUD:rate
    Sets a maximum serial baud rate. Valid values for rate are 9600, 19200,
    38400, 57600, and 115200. The default value is 115200.
 
/B
    Displays the Interlnk server screen in black and white. Use this switch
    if you have problems reading your monochrome monitor.
 
/V
    Prevents conflicts with a computer's timer. Use this switch if you have
    a serial connection between computers and one of them stops running when
    you use Interlnk to access a drive or printer port.
 
/RCOPY
    Copies Interlnk files from one computer to another, provided that the
    computers are connected with a 7-wire, null-modem serial cable and that
    the <MODE> command is available on the computer where you are installing
    Interlnk.
