Shared Variables using Two Computers and Crossover Cable

[Nathan_S]

I'm just trying to put together a simple bench test tying two computers together by a crossover cable.  They ping correctly to each other.  I used the LabVIEW examples for TCP connections and they talk correctly that way too.  I try to build and deploy shared variables on one computer, but the other computer will not identify the SV's on the first computer and vice versa. 

Can someone give me some details on how to build, deploy, and effectively use SV's?  I've read all the NI documentation, but I'm not getting the step-by-step approach very well.

Thanks.

Are you making them network published shared variables and binding them to each other? This doc gives a pretty good step by step:

That's exactly what I needed.  Kudos.
