Thanks for the suggestions. As I said in my mail, my Win installation has been corrupted (Though the partition and contents exist, accessible under Linux) and I would be satisfied at the moment to connect Lin-Lin. Looking for Lin-Neighbourhood, as suggested by Aditya Godbole, I stumbled on more appropriate help/How to page and realised that I have to mount partitions from the connected machine for NFS to work. Which I did and could access files on one machine from another. The limitation that I am having now is I can only mount folders from one user directory (under home) and not any others - such as Windows (C:) or the DVD ROM, which I would like to share. How can I do that? Thanks again.
