Software Interface
-------------------
The first method is to use TCP/IP.  You can exchange files with
FTP.

The second method is to use SAMBA.  With this you can use the
Windows networking.  


Physical Interface
------------------
If it is just a two node network, you can either connect it with
10-Base-T or 10-Base-2 ethernet.  If you use 10-Base-T you either
need a hub or you need a special null cable with crossed wiring.
If you use 10-Base-2 you need the special T pieces on both
sides.  You cannot just connect the 10-Base2 cable without
the T pieces.  It will physically fit, but it will not send data.

Craig
