Thanks for helping a Criminally End User use a OX (UNIX) with some power.

Crossover cable, "ifconfig eth0 192.168.?.? up" for each
machine. Deciding how to move file between boxes leaves alot
open for debate. I personally use NFS and Samba between my
boxes.

Yup,

Networking 2 UNIX variants : Mac OS X and Linux (S.u.S.E. 9.0)

This is my situation:

 I have a Wintel Laptop running S.u.S.E. Linux 9.0
 and
 a Apple Macintosh G-4 running Mac OS X (Panther)

BOTh are running, therefore, UNIX variants.

BOTh have EitherNet ports. (Big Phone Jacks)


I want to connect them EitherNet PEER-to-PEER.


How do I do it. In specific:

1.) How do I make them aware of each other?

 2.) How do I assign DNS numbers and names - ( #.#.#.# :
 subgenius.com )

 3.) How do I find a GUI way to co-ordinate their Hellos and
 Good-Byes?

4.) Can they Be PEER to PEER?

5.) Is file transfer a 2 way street?


Thank you very much for WHATEVER help and guidance you can give me. My local Mac Store was in the dark.
