You need to connnect the network cable (crossover) to each computer. Unless your getting a Hub/Router?
Then find basic info here

If you want to share a 56k internet connect without a hub/router
then you can use software like; WINRoute

Sharing a dsl/cable without a router then you'll need a 2nd nic card in one of the computers using the same software above would work fine.
Configing Winroute I can help ya with if you get that there...
