[newbie] Linux machine in an NT environment
Hi all, I have setup a laptop in an NT environment and I would like to be able to swap files directly, just as I can with my last remaining Mac. I haven't a clue where to start. I have an NT Worgroup with 4NT clients (all running NTServer4) one Win2K laptop and a Mac with MacOS9. Any pointers? If it helps, I can use SMB to connect to a network printer within the workgroup.

Re: [newbie] Linux machine in an NT environment
You need to set up SAMBA, your Linux box will then appear on your NT network as an NT4 box. You can even setup samba to make the Linux box your PDC. It's really quite straight forward and pretty cool when you get it all going.

Re: [newbie] Linux machine in an NT environment
Let me ask... Using Samba, is it possible to have a Linux box, dial into, and logon to, an NT domain? And, once having logged on, is it then possible to browse the NT network? How is this done?
