At this time, no. This question came up on the list not too long ago. Apparently at some time in the past, someone made some patches available to allow an old version of Samba to work over either IPX or NETBEUI (I forget which). However, Samba is pretty much restricted to operation using a TCP socket. It would require a lot of work to modify it to support another protocol. > My mid-term/long-term solution is to get a router with a Wireless AP, > and switch included. Until you can have all of the computers in the same subnet, I don't think you will find an easy solution. Your idea of getting a router is probably best. Of course, you could just do that using your Linux PC, by adding a 2nd ethernet card. I use a Linux system with 2 ethernet cards as my ADSL router - I tried a Netgear Wireless Router (MR314) for a while, and it was not nearly as reliable as the Linux box when it came to keeping the connection up. -- /----------------------------------------------- | Jim Morris | Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | AIM: JFM2001 \----------------------------------------------- -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
