[ida...@my-dejanews.com]

I know how to make a lan with 2 or 3 pcs, ethernet cards, bnc thin ethernet,
t- connectors, and terminators in windows 95/98.

Can this be done with rj45 cable?

A. Case two computers: yes, use a crossover cable.

B. case three or more - yes, use a hub.

Get a smal (4 port) hub and all is well. Itis a better solution than a
xover cable bu=cause when u want to add a 3rd system u'll need the hub
anyway.
