1. sure it can, and there is not really any tricks. It may depend on if you have a domain at home or workgroup. Probably workgroup, make sure you know the password for the 2000 machine if you want any of the xp's to have access to the shared files on the 2000 2000 was the worst windows edition IMO, a lot more check boxes to learn...
2. win2000 ? is that what u mean ? yes it can what u need is configure both to use same protocol set the ip address put the cable into a switch thats all
