I am new to Linux and it is hard for me to get through this SAMBA-stuff.

dont even get started with samba until you get them to talk first.
i had a problem with the 3c509 cards under red hat. firsy, you have to
get the dos boot disk to disable pnp for the card and set it manually.
second, you need to get your os to talk to the card first, somewhere
you need to set your "kernel module", so it knows how to talk to the
card, you need to set it to 3c509. in red hat its under netconf. third,
you need to figure out what to assign your ips to, they both need
different ones. at least one of them will need a private ip, which is
reserved for home use, for example 10.10.10.10. this means you have to
manually set your ip somewhere.
