I've added a second Linux box to my little network. It was stated in a previous thread in this list that SAMBA3 is basically just as good as NFS for file and printer sharing... so, with that advice (to somebody else) I'll stick with SAMBA (that I already use for sharing with the Windows box).
To share files, directories and devices (CD, DVD, etc.) on both Linux machines (i.e., in two directions), I need to run SAMBA server on both machines, and SAMBA client on both machines as well, is that right?
You only need one server. The samba client will work with a Windows server or a samba.server. I have set up Linux working with a Windows server, using only the client on the Linux box. It was for a friend a year ago and all I remember I is that I used Yast2 to set it up. Rich -- Rich Matson Reno, Nv. USA
