For browsing your network, it depends what you're talking about. Different protocols tend to use different applications, and you didn't even mention whether you're using Microsoft protocols or standard ones. ok, my fileserver is a 5.1 machine [as is this one] running samba. i just want to be able to browse the folders in a similar fashion as windo$e. Gnome seems to have a function to add network servers, except that it dosent seem to work. in fact, it crashes. i'm thinking there must be something i have overlooked in my network setup. -- Regards, Anthony John Carmody Anthony Carmody Consulting Pty Ltd Adaptable Business Computing Solutions == Cellular/Mobile: +61 414417457 Fax: +617 38708040 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
