5 boxing on a budget questions.

Both computers should be able to talk to each other through the router. You can get the IP address by typing ipconfig in a command prompt window, for each of the computers.
And like mentioned above i do believe you need a license per computer for keyclone. If you have the time but not the cash, probably this a good time to try out HotKeyNet

Thanks guys, took me a little bit , but I got it worked out kinda.

Sis in law gave me an old Emachine T6212 (hey it was free), and I'll still be building another one. I grabed another copy of Keyclone, and got them talking to each other via router. Given my old machine, I can run three on it, and one on the emachine (with Vent running) . I will still be building the new one over the next few months, as I want to hit that magical 5 number.

Once again, my thanks to all who helped me with this.

I'm posting a write up in the hardware forums now in hopes of helping soon-to-be 5-boxers avoid my mistakes.
