Title: Computer help needed
Post by Ueli on Aug 22^nd, 2003, 12:07pm

I have a new computer that I can't use because I have no idea how to set up a fuckin local network. :(

Given:
2 computers, both running Win98 2nd edition, both with keyboard, trackball and monitor, both with ethernet card.
1 ethernet cable, crossed.

Wanted:
A detailed description, with all t's crossed and all i's dotted, how to set up a local network so I can transfer data from the old computer to the new one.

Please, help someone who never has seen a local network.

Ueli

Download FreeBSD from http://freebsd.org load it on a cheap PC, VOILA a MAC without the expensive hardware. Get the latest version and beat Apple to it
