I recently networked my laptop and desktop together and after juggling some 
adapters around, got them up and running.  In O'Reilley's "Running Linux", 
they said that you could set-up a NFS file sharing system, without having to 
set up a NFS file server.  I just have a simple network with the two machines 
and once I figure out how to network my wifes Windoze box in, will have three 
total.  I'm not using any of the machines for a gateway.

I've downloaded a NFS tutorial, but that relates to setting up a NFS file 
server and a client.  I just want to be able to share files on my two 
machines, and not have to worry about setting up a flie server.  Can anyone 
suggest a goos tutorial on this?  I know that O'Reilly has a NFS and NIS book 
on the subject, but I've spent several hundred in books so far and was hoping 
to find a free alternative.

Thanks,

Michael
