Please try only with a full backup in reach... 

If I remember well, INTERLNK will run on Novell DOS, OpenDOS, and 
DR-DOS, but INTERSRV, which heavily patches around in the DOS kernel, 
will not work, but garbage the disks contents... 
I think, it's not worth supporting such badly written programs, 
especially since there are so many better alternatives...
