This maybe a dumb question but is a Direct Parallel Cable
Connection between Win95 and WinXP possible? Can't get
past verifying passwords when trying to connect. WinXP
documentation leads me to believe only Win2000 and WinXP
can connect. Yes, I have the correct cable and have set
notebook to bi-directional and desktop to ECC+EPP
settings in BIOS and have set up guest and host several
times...

If not possible could I connect the notebook and desktop
through thier modems directly???
