Get a Cross Cable 2. setup the Ips of both Pcs eg: pc1 -> 192.168.0.1/255.255.255.0 pc2 -> 192.168.0.2/255.255.255.0 3. bring up the interface if not up already. /sbin/ifconfig eth0 up 4. try pinging the box ping 192.168.0.2 (from pc1) 5. That shouls be it.. so exchange data, you could either try scp/ftp/samba/nfs
