connecting 2 computers....

yo...can i connect 2 computers together with a cat 5 cable and let them both share the same dialup connection?

I dont think you can share the internet connection but hooking the computer up together will let you be able to copy files from on to the other.

dial-up as in 56K modem? and what operating systems on the two computers?

Which way to you have to connect them for that to work? (copying files 2 another computer) Cat 5, usb, etc??? Im gettin a new one and i need to transfer my collection of files to my new one.

Thanks in advance

cat 5 will do. both pc's must have network cards. Then it is a question of configuring the network and setting up folder sharing,
