I'm working for awile at a company that has a small peer to peer windows network. Everyone logs on to the net accessing a shared modem on a Windows 98 machine. Can anyone give me some pointers as to what to read to get this set up so that I can access the modem. I'm using SuSE 7.0 (until 7.1 arrives of course). I don't have my manual in the same country so I can't read that<grin>. Also what should I read to setup access to shared folders on the LAN. I don't need to give access to directories on my computer. TIA, Jethro
I've just read the recent thread on Samba, should I be looking at Samba to achieve my second objective of seeing other people's shared folders? Jethro

You need a program on the windows machine with a proxy server function. There are a lot of such programs. There is a program called Wingate that must usefull for you. The other with is through virtual privat networking which can be installed on the windows 98 machine.
