simple connections between my boxes ?




I am more of a programmer and not up on the admin stuff. I have a new
laptop running windows. I have a couple of pretty old PCs. I installed
knoppix on one, and vector linux on the other. I only have one monitor,
so at the moment I am plying with vector linux. I'm starting to get the
idea I need ftp or telnet servers to ftp/telnet between these machines
? I have a netgear wireless router connected to my cable modem. The old
pc w/linux is pluged directly into the router, the laptop is on the
wireless. When I do ping on the laptop or ifconfig on the desktop, I
see one has like an ipc of 192.168.1.2, the other is like 192.168.1.3.
I can't seem to telnet or ftp between them, ping doesn't work either.
