Just install the software from a Windows workstation, specify whatever network install option you are given, and install the files onto the Samba server. You may need to map a network drive for your Windows PCs to use Samba properly in this fashion, but that is trivial. Dave - -- "Nihil tam munitum quod non expugnari pecunia possit."
