The most "natural" thing to do is to use Samba over the network connection. That makes the Mandrake machine show up in "Network Neighborhood" like a Windows machine would. you can get the details at www.samba.org or http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/doc/90/en/Server_Conf_Guide.html/service-fi le-sharing.html . -- William Hooper Any neural system sufficiently complex to generate the axioms of arithmetic is too complex to be understood by itself. _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
