Hi Mark,
The real question is, what do you want to do? Share files? Printer? Build an
intranet?
All Linux boxes are usually network ready. Just plug into the network and away
you go. (you'll need to set permissions etc)
You need to make sure each box (Linux or otherwise) on the network has a unique
name and IP number. First thing to try is ping each box from the others. (In
this regard, setting up NT to work with Linux is a bitch - I hate NT with a
vengeance! I did manage to get it to work though...)
Mail back to the list and tell us what you want to do and we'll either give tips
right away or point you in the right direction.
Regards,
