You can do this with allShare. The only problem is that allShare is a MacOS
INIT, not an A/UX process, and thus is subject to the various limitations
inherent in its nature. Speed is about 70% of an equivalent AppleShare Mac,
but I don't know what kind of performance degradation you'll feel from A/UX.
Probably another 20-30%.
