Type
Purpose
SHARE installs the capabilities for Þle-sharing and Þle-locking on your hard disk.
Syntax
SHARE [/ options ]
Or from CONFIG.SYS:
INSTALL=[ d: ][ path ]SHARE.EXE [/ options ]
Remarks
The SHARE utility is most commonly used in a network or multitasking
environment where Þle sharing is necessary. When SHARE is loaded, DOS will
utilize the SHARE utility to validate read and write requests from application
programs and users.
The /L:# option speciÞes the maximum number of Þles that can be locked at one
time. The default number of Þles is 20.
The /U option unloads the share utility and frees the memory. SHARE will not
unload if other TSRs have been loaded on top of it. The other TSRs must be
unloaded Þrst before trying to unload SHARE.
Examples
The following example loads the SHARE program from the command line:

The next example installs SHARE from the CONFIG.SYS Þle and changes the
maximum number of locked Þles to 30:
