[newbie] Vmware Linux

2001-03-16 Thread marcia

Dear All, I now have vmware running Windows 95 on my LM 7.2 which is
great. Thanks to the help of some of those here. Now, I would like to
share files between the two. Does anyone know how to do this? I am quite
a newbie in this area. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you,
Marcia

When you hava vmware running on any Linux platform, is as if you had another
machine.  If you want to share data from Linux to your vmware or viceversa
you need to use SAMBA.  It emulates the protocol used to share data in a Win
network.  If you are also new to samba, you can go to www.oreilly.com, there
you can download a book called Using Samba.  It is in PDF format and
explains how to connect a Linux machine with a Windows machine.  Good luck.
