Ethernet cards are the best way, using IP-Masquerading, but you could
do the same thing with a serial cable, using SLIP, or a parallel cable,
using PLIP. I know not how to do either of the latter, as my setup uses
ethernet, but I'm sure there are howtos for them, and either one would
be cheaper than the ethernet method, assuming you have ethernet cards
for neither machine. HTH
