I thought so too, but if he actually wanted to play human-human where each
player sit on each own pc. This possibility are in Chessmaster and Chesspartner
eg. one part is acting like a host for the other end. Very similar like playing
through an extern server like Playchess for Fritz. This could probably be setup
for other programs too (like Fritz) with some smart setup with the auto232
protocol but in the two mention programs this is build in so there is only need
for a few mouseclick.
