I have almost the same situation here in my home, excpet I run Winblows on
one machine. You do have static IP address for your computers, they range
in the subnet of 192.168.1.* There are others as well. Those addresses
are not found anywhere on the internet. Just give each computer an address
in that range, preferably not the same one, and your set. As for sharing
dial-ip, use IP Masquerading to give both computers internet access. The
How-To's explain it quite well, there are some web pages as well.
Hope this helps a little
