In order to see them in the windows-nw-tree and to access them from windows, you have to install SAMBA. With this tool you can access folders on the linux machine as if this were folders on windows-machines. Samba is part of SuSE-Linux, just install it and configure /etc/smb.conf (or /etc/samba/smb.conf depending on the SuSE-Verison you use). Also define START_SMB="yes" in /etc/rc.config. Then start it with "rcsmb start" et voila: You now should see you shared folders on the linux-machine(s). Stephan

Being somone who has known Jeremy Alison for quite a few years I can explain that Samba security can be a trivial thing or it can be extremely difficult to understand. For yourself it might be that it's a bit tough to get to grips with. It is probably best to subscribe to the Samba list to ask questions. Jeremy and all of the other Samba developers are on that list. They can help you directly or someone from the SGI labs will help you. Thanks -- Richard www.sheflug.co.uk
You can use swat to configure samba. Much easier than hacking a conf file. OKDesign oHG Security Administrator wrote:

Of course you are right. There is a tool named SWAT for administering Samba. But I couldn't get it to work as I want it to. Maybe I'm just too silly *sigh* or I didn't spend enough time for it, but I'm used to "hack" smb.conf and I know exactly what I get for what I type in. But for beginners, of course SWAT may be interesting. Stephan -----Ursprungliche Nachricht----- Von: Ray Leach [mailto:raymondl@knowledgefactory.co.za] Gesendet: Dienstag, 8.
