The concept of a shareware remote program is nice, so I tried this
one out between an adjacent 386 and a 8086 laptop.  That is, I tried
a direct connection.  To make sure that I had my cables right I
first tried it out with a Procomm Plus host connection, which worked
perfectly ok.  But no such luck with TeleReplica tr1-2, and after an
hour of trying I gave up.  I am not saying that tr1-2 won't work,
but if one doesn't get anywhere with a new program within one hour,
I consider it useless (irrespective whether it is a case of RTFM or
not).
