Several factors may influence if / how soon you get a response: 1. see http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Test/AvoidHTMLinEmail 2. how difficult the question is, or who has experience with it I know that what you request can be done, and the tool to do it is Samba. In fact, for you to share files and printers from the Linux box to the Windows 9x boxes, you must set up a Samba server on the Linux box, which I have never done. I have done some of the opposite which requires a Samba client (smbclient or smbmount). I suspect that someone who is familiar with the Samba server can give you better clues (or more integrated clues) on setting up the Samba client as well. If no one responds on that part, I will try to dig up what I did (which, unfortunately, I haven't reinstalled since my last reinstall, so it will require some digging).
