OT: Lucky me-2 boxes at work-what WIRE to connect them?
Yum, yum... I've come into possession of another box at work. I want to play
with setting it up using my office machine to masquerade, and play with
Beowulf and computational chemistry. But I know zilch about this. I plan to
spend time figuring out the networking myself, but need to know if this can
be accomplished with token-ring cards, and what darned wire to put between
the 2 machines. Can anyone give me Good news about this?
One machine has an IBM card. The other will sport 2 olicom cards (infamous
with 2.2.xx kernels, in my neighborhood anyway... so it'll be 2.0.36/38).
Can I simply sneak a cable from the lab up the hall, or is there a lot more
to this?
Appreciate any help!
