[pchelpers] Re: Conntecting 2 computers

Scott

You can connect the two together directly with a cross over CAT5 =
(Ethernet)
cable. Once the two are connect you can either run the network wizard or
simply choose to share folders. On 2000 you will need to create a user =
name
and password for the XP computer to log in. Something like "me" '1234" =
would
work. Then from the XP computer you will have to log into the 2000 =
computer.

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
