I'd be grateful if anyone could tell me what service(s) I need to enable on the server, and then how I get my netbook to spot the network. I'm only here once a week, so I won't be able to try anything out quickly, but would be glad to receive any help on this one. You connect to a Mac server like any other *nix server either using NFS or Samba/SMB/CIFS therefore just search for a mac howto. Samba is probably the best to use and will appear in Nautilus file manager (menu options Go/Network) Sorry, John and Srijon, I didn't acknowledge your assistance Owain
