If you connect whatever the mean 2 computers you HAVE a network. Now, if both are macs, it's easy to connect them using the filesharing system.
-Just use an ethernet cable and go. (macs less than 5 years old don't care if the cable is crossed or not).
In the system preferences:
- check the relevant firewall ports (sharing/firewall)
- check the relevant service
(both should open be checked automatically when you check the other.
- Assign static IP in the network configuration like 192.168.0.x, one for each computer.
In the finder, menu "Go", "connect to server, enter the other mac IP with "afp://" before the number, log on using the login/pw of the user on the other computer.
And it should work
Note, create a custom network configuration for this, not to loose you internet config of course…
