link 2 linux boxes through rj45 c.o. cable



I would like to link two linux boxes through their ethernet cards with
a cross over cable.

/etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf on both pc's have been configured to get the
ethernet interface linked with the ethernet card working in DHCP mode.

samba is configured on both boxes, and smbd running.
one of the boxes is equipped with wifi and has nmdb running. everything
works fine (internet, shared files are available on any running windows
pc, i cann access to local networks...)

the other has only the ethernet card, and nmbd -D won't be running!

i can't find any related error messages in /var/log/samba/log.nmdb

ps: on both boxes the running linux is slackware 10.2

.
