Man.. simply follow this.. Internet Sharing in Linux and give static IP to both computer like set 192.168.0.1 from your computer one and set 192.168.0.2 for computer 2 and then in computer 2 set 192.168.0.1 as gateway and give ip of ur isp's DNS as domain name server.

To find out what is dns server of your ISP look /etc/resolv.conf while you are connected to internet.

To set ips etc.. there are gui available to configure your NIC.

Hello

            With your help i am able to ping the computers
from each other.

            I.C.S (Intenet connection Sharing) is also ok.

Thanks once again
