Aloha,
DCC Protocols - Connecting two computers together via cables is no easy
task. If you have attempted to do this using the Windows Direct Cable
Connection (DCC) wizard and are still experiencing problems, then it could
be because of a missing protocol. Right-click on the Network places icon and
select the Configuration tab. Add the protocol IPX/SPX. After adding, select
it within the Configuration tab and click the Properties button. Now, bind
IPX/SPX to the Dial-Up adapter on BOTH the host and guest computer.
