Subject: 2 Questions - Harddrive && Samba 


running slackware 4.0 ....

1> I've recently gotten a larger harddrive,and would like to put that in my
linux box at  /
    but i do _not_ (if possible) want to reinstall and get all my settings
reset to default,
    what i'd like, is to make a copy of the entire linux system as it
currently stands
     and transfer it onto the other harddrive.  How would I do this ?

2> On the same machine, I have samba running succesfully,  and have a couple
of
    network shares that I access from my m$ pc.  What i'd like to do is have
my
    m$ pc share a directory or two that I can read on my linux box.  Is this
possible ?
    if so how, do i do it ? or where do i find the docs ?

TIA
    Clive Crous
