A couple of newbie questions if I may.
I have a small network at home consisting of one computer with Mandrake
(now Mandriva) 10.2, my wife's computer running XP Home, and my main
computer running XP Pro. I also have three networked printers on two
Linksys print servers. All computers can ping each other (and all
network components) and both Windows computers see the Linux computer in
the network. Samba is running just fine, I believe.
My questions.
1.When I installed Linux, it saw my wife's computer (XP Home) right away
and I was able to mount the drives. It does not see my XP Pro computer
at all. Can I fix that?
Do the two Windows computers see each other, and can you access shares
back-and-forth?
2.One of my Linksys print servers (EFSP42) has two printers on it, but
Linux will only print to the first printer. How do I get it to see the
second printer?
Google is your friend! In five seconds, I found several references to
getting that print server working with Linux.
One thing I did not mention in my original post is that both Windows
computers are using NTFS. Both Windows computers are fully visible to
each other with all directories and files open. I can read text files on
both computers remotely and move anything I want to.
I will check Google for the other question. Frankly, I forgot about that
option.
