Direct cable connection MAC to PC

[osmora]

hi guys!

I need desperately to connect a G4 400mhz running OSX 10.2 to a pc pentium 3 running windows 2000 advanced server.
I have tried all the possible options without any result.
Could anyone be kind enough to explain me step by step how to set this up.
Some people say say I need a crossover cable other say i don't
Please help me!!!!!
