Hi,

Was is the OS ?   NT or Win9x ?

If you connect 2 PC with RJ45 connector, you must use a HUB.

You can connect directly with BNC connector and one terminator (50ohm)
at each PC.

On Win9x use:
- NetBEUI protocole for LAN,
- Share Files/Printers

and share directories or your Hard Disk.

Are you a static IP for each PC on Internet ?

Regards,

Adrien
