Glad I'm not the only one :-) Share files...Seriously, the server issue is where my confusion started. I don't comprehend who is serving in my configuration. Everything I read assumes that the linux box is the "server" and everything else the "client". How does this work if my router is at the center of my little network and also acts as the IP address server ?

Exactly what is it you're trying to do? Use the linux box as a samba server or just share files among all the computers? Jeff ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bart G.
