Re: Networking laptop with other machine.

Nidge - first - if you connected them directly together you'll need a crossover cable - else you'll need a switch or something similar.

Next - you'll need to set static IP addresses on your NICs. When you have done that - try and ping the two IP addresses from the laptop / machine.

Once you have got that far that us know!
