setting up lan

I would like to setup a lan between 2 computers for easier pron sharing etc.

just dont know how >:)

googled shit like this http://www.ehow.com/how_4815595_setup-lan-windows-xp.html but it only made me more confused. I did the network setup wizard on both computers and rebooted but do not see any connections created. halp!

I think it was this one http://lanshark.29a.ch/de/

solution 2:
put both computers in the same workgroup
reboot
go to your porn folder
right click a file/folder
choose networksharing or whatever


second pc:
go to My Network Place and enjoy
thanks, ill give it a try.

e: so i have to manually select all the files that I want to share?
Parent
no, just do it for the folder and put all files u want to share there
Parent
works nice expect some folders are not displaying their content with the lanshark. :o
Parent
I don't know much about lanshark since I use the built-in filesharing :P
put your files in a one big folder and share it :p
Parent
make sure that your network is protected! enjoy :)

skill weapon!
I tried to huzzle with that prob for some time too, then I just decided to share stuff via our DC++ hub, slower yes, easier yes.
well we got it partially working and 8.5mb/s is pretty cool :)
Parent
I have to manage with 6,6mbit/s because of the wireless...

I used filezilla back in the days but thought there might be something better for that nowadays

this lanshark is like a little brother of filezilla

like smartftp but more advanced

we had negative-image lan and we used this. u need to install the server if u want to share, client if u only want to download.
Parent
Yes, I have been using filezilla for ages, but I don´t understand why you brought it up now.
Parent
cuz lanshark(c comment #1) reminded me of it
Parent
Ah, ok. For a moment I thought that at least one of us is an idiot. "what the hell is he talking, did I miss something or?"
Parent
cu at antwerp
I will be in charge of setting the pc's up.
Parent

You don't need *any* third-party tools.

i bet on you!
you need either 2 lan cables and a hub or 1 crossover-cable.
leave TCP/IP settings to default (dont enter any IP or gateway).
start->perform->"cmd"->"ipconfig"
now open a folder (e.g. C:\) and simply type the adress of the other PC in the adress window.

e.g.
\\192.168.1.4


and seeing you dont know anything about networks: yes you will have to select the folders you want to share (simple right click and a tick at the right place for each folder).
feeling rly sorry for you.
