Would like to know if its necessary to unplug cable from port on both computers when not in Target mode. Instructions say to drag icon to trash, restart target computer and unplug cable. I have been leaving firewire cable plugged in on both computers with seemingly no ill effects.
No it's not necessary, and if you're not using your firewire port, you can go ahead and leave it plugged in.
that said, if you're putting your systems into FW Target mode that often, you've got serious problems.
