You shouldn't listen to those people - I do it all the time.

Actually, it *is* simple networking stuff, but it sounds like you don't
have the background for that. You have to know how to set IP addresses
manually, and a tiny bit about subnetting.

It will be much easier to set up the second machine the way you'd set
up any other machine, using a router that has a DHCP server to assign
the IP address and default route, etc. Even if for some reason you don't
have the machines you're playing with connected to a network, it'll still
be much easier doing this with a cheap router.
