Thanks for the idea. I think I like this idea better. Can you point me
to a good resource for learning/understanding Samba better?
I have multiple machines and KVM, at present. My Windows box is Win98.
I refuse to pay $200 for XP to have MS babysit/spy on me. I shudder to
think how much Windows Vista will cost and spy on it's users.
