Ouch!! Sounds more like a good reason to ditch NT. It's not LISa's problem if NT does not challenge it for a password. I don't have NT (its a home network by the way). My Win98 machines however act correctly and will not let LISa browse below any directory with sharing disabled, and will challenge on password protected ones. > > Also, have you tried using the address bar in konqueror?

I'm new to Linux, and my Solaris experience is 3 years out of useage, so I'm just feeling my way in. So far I like Mandrake 8.0 very much, and am just building my second Linux computer.
