I have an ibook with osX and a Power Mac with os9 and output to an HP Deskjet printer. The ibook connects to an Airport with a wireless card. The PowerMac hooks to the Airport with an RJ45. The Airport goes to cable modem.

I want to add a PC (with Windows 98, though thinking about getting XP). All are already configured for DHCP.

Will it work to plug a Linksys Hub (I've got lying around) into the Airport and connect the PowerMac and PC to the hub with RJ45s?

Do I need to fiddle with settings in OS9/10 or Windows (Especially windows since this is connecting to an Airport)?

Can someone point me to the easiest way to use the printer for all computers once they are networked?

Thanks, Patrick
