Hi,
USB is a host-device based protocol.
If one computer can act as a device(there are various methods to do it), It can be
enumerated at the other computer host and you can
communicate.
Usually on PC side you can see Host port. But there are some add on cards, which will
give you device port.
You can refer OTG(On The Go spec of USB, usb.org) also, that is a bit different.

[linux-usb-devel] Connecting two computers via USB port

Dear All,
I would like to connect two computers via USB port and USB cable and I
want to write a program for handling this connection (in Linux) . Is any
body here who could help me and let me know what is done and what I should
do? Is it possible to connect two computers with a simple cable or there
should necessarily be a special device for it? I know that there are some
cables with a special device that connect two computers in linux and their
driver is available in usbnet, but couldn't it be done by a simple cable?
Logically, There should be some way to do this, because USB is a port and we
should be able to access it's data lines directly,but why this is not done
before? It's really important for me. Please help me if you could!
Thank you beforehand,
Oktie Hasanzadeh
