What would be the hardware configuration that would allow me to do this:

Connect a Mac (OSX 10.3) to an XP (Home) computer in a simple home filesharing arrangement, and at the same time have internet access to both machines. I'm thinking more complex than just a simple ethernet hub? Also, is there a generally acknowledged preference in this setup as to which machine would be the server, and which the client?

Thanks.
