If you want to use Microsoft Mail, you'll have to see if you can get a
POP server for it, or get it configured to forward mail to your PC via
SMTP.

 Will I be able to use the resources of the machines in my workgroup?

You can use printers and files with the samba package.  (And you can
share *your* resources with your workgroup.)  If you compile the
kernel with SMBFS support, you can mount the files off your server or
any Win95 PC with TCP/IP enabled.

logging into Winnt from linux

1998-01-21 Thread Gary van Blerk
Hi there, 

I have recently installed Debian Linux 1.3.1 Kernel 2.30.0 at work. We
 run a WinNt server 3.51 Is there any client I can use to log onto the 
WinNt server from my linux box and get access to all my resources on 
the server and also get Microsoft mail. Will I be able to use the 
resources of the machines in my workgroup? I can ping all of the 
servers. DHCP is working and I can ping gateways and machines in the 
workgroup. 

Any help will be greatly appreciated
Gary
