If you already had filesharing setup in windows then (as Derek suggests) samba will just work out of the box (if not goto control panel>networks>make sure filesharing is ticked/installed... and make sure you have firewall settings on linux such that it doesn't stop it working. Again, Derek has a link to where there is help for this. As for Linux to windows filesharing (i.e. the other way round, cos samba doesn't do both to my knowledge), I use Komba2 to mount my Windows machines' files.
If you have any probs setting these up then I might be able to help since I've only just done it myself and haven't quite had time (approx 1 month lol) to forget how I did it yet. :) Neil -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Derek Jennings Sent: Wednesday, November 28, 2001 10:34 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [newbie] Servers I think you are right. I have not seen any facility for Samba to use Netbeui. But there is no need. Windows computers by default bind file sharing to both Netbeui and TCP/IP Is there a particular reason why it has to be Netbeui ?
