Well first I will start out what I have....
I have one pc running WinXP pro
another PC running Win98se
total of 3 nics (2x 10/100 and 1x10mbs)
3 regular patch cords (CAT5)
1 Linksys switch/router 5 port with an uplink
cable modem from Comcast
What I am trying to do is hook both pc's on together to share files and the internet.
I have followed several guides and with no luck I can only the 1 pc but not the other....and vice versa on the other pc...
first lets see if I got this hooked up ok...
the xp computer (is the main pc with that is connected to the internet now) has 2 nics installed ...one is called internet and the other is called lan.
Ok...starting from the cable modem..
straight thru cable goes to the internet nic....then from the Lan nic...it goes to the uplink prt to the switch (I don't have a cross over cable) then from the switch it goes to the win98 computer
Now to start ....this is ok right?
BTW: I am running raid 0 in the XP computer...if that means
anything
