Networking Windows with freeBSD
I have a p400 running FreeBSD 5.1 with a 56k modem and network card that i need to network with my p1.4 that has network card running windows xp. I would like to connect them with a simple crossover cable and have FreeBSD as the Host, and windows as the Client. How would i go about doing this?
