Your Mandrake box has some name, or at least IP address. You should be able to go to any browser in your network and enter the URL http://mandrakename:9000/ (replacing mandrakename with whatever your server's name is.) >.

Linux can read NTFS file systems, but it can't write to them (at least easily) There are lots of alternatives, including plugging the NTFS drive into your Linux box, running Samba client, using FTP/SFTP It really depends on what you want to do. And I'd suggest using an EXT3 file system on Linux over either FAT or NTFS -- Pat http://www.pfarrell.com/music/slimserver/slimsoftware.html _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
