Have you configured the parallel port as an adapter on the win2k machine? 
This was real easy in NT, and carries over into 2k. I'm not sure that 2k 
even supports peer links on parallel EXCEPT in RRAS (a server feature).

performance notwithstanding, this is a lot easier to do with serial ports, 
where you can easily configure the serial port as a crossover cable(i.e. 
modem-less) adapter.
you can set the serial port rate up to 115Kbits, about 1/8 of the parallel 
port rate, but normally adequate.
