A data transfer method realizing a function similar to Unix's FORK by the following operations: allowing a parent process on a server to issue a request for intermission of communication to a process on a client and allowing the process on the client to issue a report of completion of intermission; allowing the parent process to issue, to a child process created on the server and the process on the client, a request for establishment of a new communication line connection between them; and, if the parent process has received data from the process on the client before the establishment of the new connection, coping the data to the child process.
