Having tried to get an idea about the working of a home network from the howto's man pages and the SuSe manual I am at a point that I am looking for a more popular an hands on description what can be done and how with a home network. My home network exists of two computers, one with SuSe 7.3 and the other with Slackware 3.5, connected via a Rj45 crossover cable. The network is setup, the computers are connected but that is it for now. My network experience is based on DOS, a laplink cable and programs such as norton in order to link computers. In DOS I can look into the other computer, get files and copy files from the second computer. But with Linux? Does somebody has the URL of a popular description of networking ?
