Hello guys!
A friend of mine intends to build a home network that consists of two computers and he was wondering whether or not it is possible to use his old 386 machine running Win 3.1 as a netowrk server that would manage the negotiation between the two computers and the ISP.
Is that possible at all?
If yes, what is required?
Any server software for Win 3.1?
Thanks!

If at first you don't succeed, you're about average.

If it is Windows 3.1 and not Windows for Workgroups 3.1 then you can use Network Client 3, only require TCP/IP protocol see:
