Hello I just recently did a Knoppix "begginer" HD install with KNOPPIX_V4.0.2CD-2005-09-23-DE and i couldnt be happier with the results. This isnt much a problem as i dont know WTF to do... :( well... To the Question! Well I Have 4 Machines hooked up to a router which is connected to my DSL modem which blah blah blah... One of these 4 machines is a XP SP2 Machine :evil: (before i switched my main pc to linux) i use as a kind of file server... It has all of my music, program installers, videos, and other "unmentionable things" :P I have both of the hard drive in it set to be shared and i can easly access them on my other windows XPSP2 Machinwe by doing the Map Network Thing in windows explorer. I was wondering if it is possible to do something like this in Knoppix?

Just like in Windows Explorer (\\your_machine_name\shared_folder), you can use Knoqueror. It is a file manager, web browser, ftp client, Windows network browser, SSH/SCP client all in one.
For files just use the URL: /path/to/some/files
For ftp: ftp://username:password@IP.Address.Or.hostname/path/to/upload/
For http: http://username:password@IP.Address.Or.hostname/path/to/download/
For SSH/SCP: fish://username@IP.Address.Or.hostname
For Windows network Samba SMB, depending on the level of security involved: smb://IP.Address.Or.hostname
smb://IP.Address.Or.hostname/sharename
smb://username@IP.Address.Or.hostname/sharename
smb://domain\username@IP.Address.Or.hostname

I want to be able to add the shared folder to my desktop for easy reach and so i can listen to music that is stored on the network drive in XMMS. Is this possible?
