Direct cable connection



In Windows I recall something called Direct Cable Connection that
allowed you to link two computers thru the parallel port. The
GNU/Linux version of this appears to be PLIP (which I tried and
failed at many many moons ago).

So, is there a more modern way to "hotwire" two boxes without the
use of routers or extra file systems? Is it possible to do a
straight USB to USB or NIC to NIC connection?
