Hello SuSE'rs!
I got SuSE 8.0 installed on a stationary box and a laptop, both are connected to the same switch, both run dhcp, same username and uid. I want these two to be able to connect to each other but I don't know how to do that. I've never done this before with Linux and I don't know which way doing this is the most common (and perhaps easiest) one. Both boxes also run W2k where I can connect between them, but I use Linux 99% of the time so I need a connection between those. Can someone give me a hint on how to do this?, as you can probably guess I'm not that much into networking...:o]

Hello Helgi, It could be worthwhile reading "Tux Knows It's Nice to Share" articles dealing with NFS (client+server) and NIS. You find them at www.linuxjournal.com, just search for "Tux Knows It's Nice to Share" and you get a list of articles (Part 1-8 or so). Just click them through for the one you need.
