If I disable DHCP in my Linksys routers control screen exactly how do I configure my two machines with a static IP?

This way I can use the port forward and hopefully connect to my computer as a host using pcAnywhere.

Both boxes have Win2000 pro, Bellsouth adsl,Linksys 4 port
 
right click "my network places" properties, tcp/ip, properties. Set an ip address on the same network as the linksys. I beleive it is 192.168.0.x by default(x=unique number between 2 and 254). Set a Mask of 255.255.255.0, a default gate way of the ip address of the linksys (probably 192.168.0.1) and then set the DNS servers (set these to the dns servers of your ISP)

That's it!
