I have tried to do that with a cable (rj45 as it's called in France) connecting them, but then I could figure out what to do. There is some utility in KDE but I could not make it work This is why I believe I need a howto; I am currently reading the NET-HOWTO but any other advice will be welcome Thx all, -- Jean Magnan de Bornier 3 Cours Victor Hugo, 13980 Alleins France Tel: 04 90 59 33 94 Port: 06 09 17 35 87 mèl: jm.bornier*at*free.fr
