An easier way is to download/install GigaTribe on each computer (www.gigatribe.com), select the folders you want to share with others on first machine, then "invite" the other machine into your private virtual network. You'll have to create a seperate username for each account you use at the same time, but it's free and only takes a minute to set up... (oh yeah, and they both have to be connected to the internet!)
