Depending upon the age of the NICs, you can use a cross-over cable for older NICs, or newer NICs should be able to use a standard cable. A couple of links for info: http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/426 examples of both comm port and Ethernet styles http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crossover_cable specifics: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Null_modem http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet_crossover_cable A NIC connection will require you to have Microsoft Network Client installed in Control Panel Networking, AND File and Printer Sharing enabled. You MUST also share some folders/files on the computers. It is NOT recommended to share the entire disks or the system folders... Null modem or direct comm port cable connect requires using the supplied Accessory or some other communication program.

Yes. The computers will automatically assign themselves private IP addresses in the 169.254.x.x range after waiting for DHCP requests to time out at startup. To make startup faster, assign them static IP addresses in one of these ranges: 10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255 172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255 -- Best Wishes, Steve Winograd, MS-MVP (Windows Desktop Experience) Microsoft Most Valuable Professional Program http://mvp.support.microsoft.com |

hi group
Particularily, I want to have automatic configurations only because it is the more rapid solution, but now I have a Win98 that automatic config is no working anymore, Win98 doesn't connect to internet, but I shall no use, at least by now non auto configurations. Perhaps I modified some config values I have unistalled all, and installed again Client for Microsoft Networks Ethernet controller TCP IP and, in this I have - obtain IP automatically - use DHCP for WINS - do not use DNS thanks very much in advance, Carlos.
