On each computer install the openssh-server and openssh-clients packages. Now on your KDE Konqueror URL line enter fish://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/path/to/directory where username is a valid user name on the remote computer and hostname is either the IP address or the name of the remote host as defined in your /etc/hosts file. /path/to/directory is the directory name you want to access on the remote host. You will be prompted for a user namepassword of the the remote user. It is possible to configure the system to not prompt for a password. This page explains more http://www.jennings.homelinux.net/kio_fish.html derek Also check the information about and install the lisa daemon. In konqueror you can browse your network, click on the machine identified by IP and see the services they offer, be that fish, http, smb or other. Go to Drakconf to configure lisa.

How hard is it going to be to accomplish this and where do I start? Thanks, Steve Install webmin on both machines. Export your home dir on each machine and make a nfs share as well on both the machines. Also make a /mnt/xxx dir where the files will be shared. All using webmin. That should do the trick. -- Marek Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com Join the Club : http://www.mandrakeclub.com

[newbie] networking with linux
Hi, I want to network my linux box with my two other machines (win2k and win98), I want the linux box to act as a server on the network as it will eventually be connected to the internet and the other two shall access the net through it (hopefully). I have not configured the linux box at all as i am unsure about networking with linux. Where is the best place to start, anyone got any decent sites that cover this for the newbie? I am just unsure where to start with all this. thanks in advance lee Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com
Re: [newbie] networking with linux
Try www.linuxnewbie.org , and look at the NHF (Newbie Help Files) for networking.

Fwd: Re: [newbie] networking with linux
Lee Start off by teading the HOWTo's on Mandrake User Online http://www.mandrakeuser.org/docs/connect/ Also check out the archive of this email list http://www.mail-archive.com/newbie@linux-mandrake.com/ Samba will get your Windows machines networked to the Linux machine. The Windows machines will be able to browse the Linux files with Network Neighbourhood. LISa will give you the ability to browse your windows machines from Konquerer just like Windows Network Neighbourhood. (Some old mails tell how about configuring LISa) IP Maquerading will allow the Linux box to be a gateway for the Windows machines. Tip: When configuring Samba to get networking between your Linux box and your Windows boxes. Don't forget to enable password encrption in Samba. That one catches everyone out.
