Hello,
I've got a problem. I need to make connection between two computer Computer A has: 1. USB port 2. GNU/Linux Debian Woody with custom kernel 2.4.25 with my own backport of driver for ALi Corp M5632 chip based host-to-host USB 2.0 cable Computer B has: 1. USB port 2. Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows XP (You choose. ;) ) I was able to make connection between to Linux based computers (using usbnet), and two Windows computers but I have had no luck with Linux to Windows one - computers do not see each other (pings, etc.). I searched for the answer almost everywhere (google, groups archive, mail list of linux-usb.org etc.) but didn't find the answer wheather it is possible not mention HOW to do it. I believe I need special driver for windows, but till today I was unable to find one. Oh, another thing. It HAS to be made through USB Cable, not ordinary networking card, RS232 null-modem cable etc, etc. Thank you for your answers, Radoslaw Grzanka |
