firewire (1394) networking
I would like to network a windows computer and a linux computer together via firewire. Is this possible? Currently they are networked over ethernet with a hub/router in between. I transfer many large audio projects between these machines and I think firewire would speed things up dramatically.
Can it be done? Shoudl it be done? How do I do it? --MIKE |

Would SLIP work for this (Firewire is serial, right?)? If so, then that's probably your best bet ... good luck
(I've never even done PLIP in Linux) |

Firewire should supply a network interface. youŽll just have to assign IPs.
I never tried, but in my WinXP, i have a 1394 NIC driver installed, linux should be the same.

So far I am just trying to configure the card i have in linux, then I will try the networking part.
is this right? dmesg | grep 1394 looks like ohci1394: $Rev: 530 $ Ben Collins <bcollins@debian.org> ohci1394_0: OHCI-1394 1.0 (PCI): IRQ=[9] MMIO=[dd800000-dd800800] Max Packet=[2048] ieee1394: Host added: Node[00:1023] GUID[0011060000003162] [Linux OHCI-1394] I have no way to cnnect it currently and test.... --MIKE |

That tells me that you have those modules loaded correctly, so yeah I'd say the card is configured correctly as far as I can tell.
