Exclamation Synergy Between PC and MAC

ok, i have a computer with WinXP SP3, soon to be Win7. and a iMac G4, without a wireless card. i have the wireless internet shared from my PC (192.168.0.1) to my Mac (192.168.0.2) via a Patch Cable using a network bridge. I want to use my PC as the server, i am using Synergy 1.3.1 for my pc and SynergyKM 1.3 running on my Mac. i have the screen name for my pc as the ip address 192.168.0.1, and the screen name for my mac The-iMac (which is the name of the mac).

When i start the server the pc says waiting for clients, and shows it's self in the list, when i try to have the mac join i get the error

Synergyd[274] WARNING: failed to connect to server: Timed out

Synergyd[274] WARNING: failed to connect to server: Cannot connect socket: host is down.

I have no form of anti-virus software, and my firewall is disabled.

Any ideas would much appreciated.

Thanks BWK
