I'm trying to get a small ethernet network set up between my two
computers. One has a NE2000-compatible (16-bit) BNC ethernet card while the
other has a NE1000-compatible (8-bit) BNC ethernet card. The computer
with the NE2000 is set to 10.0.0.2 while the NE1000 computer is
10.0.0.1. I think I've got both configured correctly, but for some
reason I keep getting "ed1: timeout" error messages. I've checked the
IRQ on both computers so that can't be the problem. I'm unable to ping
either computer from one another. Is there something I'm missing here?

Is there something obvious that I'm missing in my configuration?
