Is it ok to use a crossover ethernet cable to connect a Mac (Powerbook G4) to a PC (unknown CPU, probably a few years old or older.)? Let me know if you need more info. I won't know more info about the PC until I see it this weekend, 7/5/08. And where on the PC do I find the technical info I need so I can find it on the Mac with the network.

The only pins that need to be crossed are 1,3 and 2,6. So just check your cable on both end and make sure it matches the diagram.

1) if the device is set to dhcp just let it pickup an address and then inspect the dhcp server for the mac address assigned.
2) set up this device on a switch port and then wireshark on a mirrored port. Setup wireshark the power on the device. The hope here is that the device will transmit something when first powered on. Like a hello I'm here... You should see this message with wireshark. The data packet will also include the mac address.
3) depending on the device there may be a configuration utility that will discover this device by sending out a special bradcast message. Check to see if this device has a setup application (thinking print server or remote serial port device).
