I am trying to set up a Smoothwall firewall using an older machine. The main unit
is an XP with built in LAN. The other has a card.
Having never set up a network I just went out and bought a regular network cable
but get the unplugged message.
Someone mentioned a crossover is needed if I don't use a router or hub. Is this
like an adapter that goes on one end? I hate going crazy over such a simple thing.
