Setup Samba on the Linux box, that's all you need to share file/printer, anything else you need? BTW, Samba is included in 7.1, read the manual to get it work, not that difficult after all. Dennis/sg
I use the Linksys BEFSR41 to connect two laptops (win98 & 95) and another desktop (win95) to my main Cu (win95 and SuSE 7.1) in order to receive Cox@home using one account. I haven't figured out how to include the Linux os into Network Neighborhood as I'm really new to Linux, but I didn't have to change any settings to get on the Internet using Linux and when I'm using this os the other computers are still able to connect to @home. When I boot up in windows all four cu's see each other and are able to connect. I, too, would like to know how to set my system up so when I'm using (learning) Linux it's included in my local network.
