Is it twisted pair, thinNet, or thickNet physical connection? For Twisted Pair you need hub or switch. Is this between two Linux boxes or Linux and Windows boxes? Lemme know the details
Once connected just configure TCP/IP as follows on Linux: Code:
ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.10 up

After physical connection turn on both boxes. First make sure network card is detected on both boxes:
Code:
dmesg | grep eth0 Code:
ifconfig eth0 Code:
ifconfig IP-address netmask up Code:
ping box-1-ip ping box-2-ip Code:
ssh user@box1-ip ssh user@box2-ip ssh root@box1-ip To share files between to Linux boxes you need to install NFS server. To share files / printer between Windows / Max OS and Linux you need to install Samba file server (NFS can be also used). Different bistro stores configuration files at diffrent locations.
