Is this feasible ?
Samba SSH
How does KDE work on this, would I have to have a fully fledged KDE configuration on both the server home directory and the laptop ?
Not on a remote login unless you want to lose on your home machine. Use SSH which is easy to use.
I want to use a wireless connection - practical ?
IP Sec !! FreeSwan ... et al.
I have SuSE 7.3 and 8.0 - which would be better, I suspect that I shouldn't base my whole configuration on a .0 release, I was thinking of using 7.3 for the fileserver and 8.0 for the laptop ?
Either. I've done both for companies and both work fine on laptops and Samba servers. What laptop is it ?
I'll appreciate any feedback, please don't start a Smoothwall flame, I recognise that some people have issues with Mr Morrell but I don't really want to go down that route.......
No, I don't want that either. Just that he threatens everyone. Tried BSD as a firewall instead ? Thanks -- Richard www.sheflug.co.uk
