Hello,
I'm trying to connect two computers via an Ethernet cable.

I'm able to connect either to a Vostro 1000
Any help would greatly be appreciated.

Thank you

Dear fellow.
you are using xp with service pack 3 you didn't mention that you got the cross cable connection with your RJ_45? first if you are making a dedicated connection then you need to make sure you got the cross cable connection then it will help you out. The configuration is really simple but first make sure about the physical connection. Then simple you need to share internet connection sharing(ICS) it will called the server machine and other one will be client you need to restart both machine first on the server one where ICS is enable and then the second one after this the other client maching get the Dynamic ip from server you see the dynamic ip by click on run and type CMD and then type this command in dos promt ipconfig and enter. it will show you the ip which will like 192.168.0.2 the last number may be vairy from 2 to 254.
