Netbui, Win2k and file/print sharing

How do I set up Netbui to share between my 2 win2k computers so that the outside world can't access them thru my broadband connection. I have cable modem access and a Linksys 4 port router. Is there a way to bind Netbui to file and print sharing and disable TCP?IP? Thanx!
 
Using NetBEUI is another way to secure your LAN, but with your router, probably not needed. Not sure what shane means by worse though. On a small LAN it is faster than using TCP/IP generally, many times takes name resolution problems out of the picture, and because its not routable, more secure. In your case, it doesnt seem a step you need to take though.
