Its quite easy. There are several ways to do it. The way I like best is :- Install smb4k and samba-client if not already installed. Run smb4k (In Menu>Internet>FileTransfer) and you get a network browser similar to Windows Network Explorer. Click on a share to mount it (You will need to give the Windows username/password) The mount will be in your home under ~/smb4k/hostname/sharename Use konq or another file manager. A second way is if you know the name of the share you want to use. Just put the path direct in the URL line of konqueror for example :- smb://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/C You can bookmark the share and go to it instantly. derek -- www.jennings.homelinux.net http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org
