Default Network Me & NT



I'm not sure if anybody already posted a similar question,
so here it goes: Is it possible to directly connect two
computers that have Windows Me and Windows NT on them?

The Network Wizard in Me lets you make a floppy disk only
for Win 95 and 98, so I don't know what to do. I have the
Cat 5e Crossover cable. Is that all I need? Thank you!!!

Make sure that the TCP/IP protocol is installed on NT, and remove
NetBEUI and IPX/SPX (if installed). Configure NT to be a member of a
workgroup, not a domain, and set its workgroup name to the same name
that the Me computer uses.

This web page has information and links for NT networking:
