Any special reason using cygwin for this, doesn't win2k provide this
functionality, basically your network connected computer pretends
dial-up-server, and your laptop pretends to dial to it, but no modems,
and no dialling done, just PPP/SLIP talk.. 

Saw some discussions how to do that for Palm.. 

Hmmm.. Make new connection -> connect directly to other computer...
