Thanks for all who tried to assist me. This works well now. The problem was
with wrong pinout circuit in the book that i have ( pin 1 in wrong side ).

Are you sure this is not a config problem? Wiring diagram seems O.K.
Have you tried running tcdump (hope I remember this right) on the Linux box?

Sure i tried to connect win98 with NT with this cable. It does not work
either.
I tried to reboot both comps ( a favorite MS solution )
I hope I'm not misleading. AFAIK, things goes like that:
There are two pairs of cables used out of the eight in the RJ-45 jack your
using.
They are attached to pins 1+2 and 3+6. In regular connection, the wirings go
like that:

I spent last evening trying to connect Mandrake laptop to any of my M$ boxes
using 10BaseT crossover cable.
I don't want to purchase a hub, and according to the theory everything
should be OK with such cable.
The cable is vanilla-classic 13
