[SATLUG] Network Question

If they both have an expansion port on back, the best way to link them
is thru the expansion port.  It ties the backplanes directly together.

If no expansion ports (or no cable available), you can connect it thru
the ports.  A cross-over cable is PROBABLY required.  

Some hubs have a MIDI/MIDX (sometimes labeled crossover) switch on one
of the ports (usually port 1 or last port).  If so, plug in a regular
cable and throw the switch on just ONE hub.  They'll link right up.
