No need at this time. Just the two.
You had previously stated 6 or 7. Only 2 machines could be peer to
peer versus a LAN. I do it all the time when hooking up my laptop to
some ones machine.
This could end up being just a temprary setup, just for the purpose
of transferring the files. The big cheese doesn't want to address
file sharing at this time, probably because their "IT" person don't know s**t!
In that case you want to do a peer to peer connection & not set up a
LAN. You could besides cat5 use firewire or usb 2.0 or even printer
or serial port connection with a laplink cable albeit will be slower.
Heck my favorite file mgr is Total Commander & they include the
ability to do a port to port transferring of files.
Not using any file sharring yet, AFAIK. Does W2K have simple FS?
I don't believe so. For some reason I can't remember at 4am EST.
