James,

My guess is that you are using DHCP on both and that both can see the
Internet, but not each other.  Right?  If so, a better setup would be to
make one machine your internet gateway sing connection sharing and the
other a purely local machine.  Your gateway machine could also then be
the firewall, limiting your need to manage security to only one.

If this guesswork is accurate and you need help to make this happen,
have a stroll through the archives, where you'll find 1000 or so
messages about this, then come back with questions anyway ;-)
