After been able to conect my Mac using OS X to my Windoze Box via Ethernet, I have to start over again.
Now I'm starting my Mac in OS 9 (couldn't stand the problem with Quark and Suitcase in OS X anymore, so I gave up). It means that I have to set it up again for it to be able to "see" the PC, but I don't know where to start.
Now I connected my DSL modem to the Ethernet port, but I'd really like to connect the modem via USB (I didn't see this option when I installed DSL)and connect to the PC via Ethernet, share files and the internet access and let my wife browse the Internet from the PC while I work and browse with the Mac.
Any help?

I'd say get a router and forget about USB (at least to the mac).
