This is SOT, but it is related to CF.

I want to be able to manipulate MS-Access databases from CFMX (Linux) 
running on Mac OS X.

I have been told that the way to do this is run MS-Access on a win box 
on a LAN, and then have my CFMX programs read the MS-Access db over the 
network -- OpenLink says they have a connector that can potentially be 
used to interface CFMX and MS-Access over a LAN.

OK, Mac OS X Jaguar has built-in capability to connect to win networks, 
so that part should be easy.  (AFAIK, Jaguar includes the popular 
networking protocols including, NFS, SMB, and whatever the acronyms are)

I don't know where to begin on the winNT side -- How do I define a 
network so that I can recognize it from a Mac OS X box?

Anybody got any ideas or can point me to a reference?

TIA

Dick
