peer to peer networking setup
Hi all,
I have a Debian m/c and my son has a Windows xp m/c both have onboard NICs. I have done peer to peer in Windows before, but can't get it to work this time. We have a 3com four port hub and connected it all up but the debian m/c doesn't see the windows share and vice versa.
I read the Linux bible about samba and installed that, but I feel it's falling down over the IP addresses. Is there a standard way of assigning an IP address on Debian? How do I set an IP adress up for the machine and test the link please?
Many thanks,
Greeb
