Interconnecting Computers

Hi
I am a registered user of a program called Radmin which permits remote operation of a computer. I intend to connect my outside astronomy PC to my indoors Notebook using a RJ45 crossover network cable. I have ensured that the cable is OK and that the associated ethernet NICs in each computer are enabled. I am using the correct IP addresses for each computer. However, when I try to ping between computers to intially check the connection I get the message "network cable unplugged".
Any suggestions on how I check/proceed?
Cheers Peter
