I have two computers with Damn Small Linux. The first  is an Eone Emachines 500.The other is a Presario V2415LA. I want to send files between both using audio cables. How can I use netcat to get it? Do I have to use soundmodem, too?

I download minimodem_0.19.orig.tar.gz...
from http://www.whence.com/minimodem/
