Postman Posted November 28, 2004 Report Share Posted November 28, 2004 OK, I'm back with another problem Background: 1 box running XP with several partitions of which one partition is set to share. 1 box newly setup with Mandrake 10. Both connected to a D-Link DI-614+ router with their own IP# sharing Internetconnection. Question: Can I access the shared files on the XP-box from my Linux box without having to make any new drastic installments or changes?

polemicz Posted November 28, 2004 Report Share Posted November 28, 2004 Install the Samba packages and get your smb.conf file set up. I use smb4k to access my Windows shares (on an XP box and 2000 Pro box). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a tool to configure it in Mandrake Control Center Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
