I I> don't have a box running samba at the time being, so can't test it. I'm no expert, but I do have some Samba shares set up on my Linux box, and they do show up on my Windows machines. But I don't of any way to set up Samba, so that shared Windows folders will show up on my Linux box. I did a lot of reading, when I set up the configuration file, and I don't remember anything about setting up windows Shares. I would be really, really interested in doing this, if it is possible, though. -wittig website: http://www.robertwittig.com/ . ------------------------ Yahoo!
