you have to edit your /etc/rc.conf file and your /etc/resolv.conf ( and input your dns) ...is youre using dhcp you have to run the dhcpd daemon

to browse the other windows machine , you need samba

pacman -S samba

sorry....i have put my dns suffix into /etc/resolv.conf but but how to configure and start dhcpd..

i dont use dhcp but i guess this is what you would need

pacman -S dhcp
pacman -S dhcpd

then add dhcp to the daemons section is rc.conf...or manually start by doing a
/etc/rc.d/dhcp start
( at least im guessing thats where it should be...i dont have dhcp installed on my box)

no, in rc.conf make sure you have the line:

eth="dhcp"

and then add your module to the MODULES array and 'network' to the DAEMONS array
