No particular problem, you just have to connect the serial ports with
an inverter cable (Rx connected to Tx at the other end, and vice
versa).
Then you use ordinary ppp just as you would over a modem (use 115200
as
speed, because it's likely the limit for your serial ports).
When the ppp connection is up (ifconfig reports new interface pppn,
e.g.
"ppp0", on both machines) you just use ifconfig and route to set the
IP
addresses and routes for both machines. Really easy ...
