Gentlemen

I figured if anyone knows, you all will.

I have a small home network using Linux (almost) exclusively.
I also have a laptop without an ethernet card but I have been
able to tie it to one of the boxes using PLIP. The question
is: Can I telnet into all the boxes once I've been recognized
by one. So far I haven't been able to telnet into any box
except the one I'm directly connected to. I've read the NET3
HOWTO again and also skimmed the Crab Book a couple of times
in the last few days (great review by the way - I needed it),
and so far no luck.
        Is it possible to telnet into a third box using PLIP
through ethernet??

Thanks for your time
