Waht do you want to know?

On BeOS I failed to het a Xircom PCMCIA working, it always welcomes me to
"BeOS Debugging Land". On Linux all works fine.

Not really a reference but you could try to get Samba running on them
both. Linux has plenty of tutorials and the like for samba and on
Bebits there's clients for BeOS with their own tutorials.

My answer over the years has been setup one machine or both as a FTP
Server and just FTP items back and forth. Sometimes not pretty but it
always works. Printing from a BeOS machine to another has always been
tough for me though. If the printer host machine was Windows 98 then
the BeOS machine had little trouble printing to the printer but if it
was NT, 2000, or XP it was a complete hit or miss. My PPC BeOS machines
could print fine but my X86 BeOS machines could not print to my Windows
2000 server. Strange but true.

same time...hard work. i use them with ftp, or i just pliug the cable
internet on my BeOS PC and go :)...the other one has WinXP installed.
