I'm a total linux noob. I've got Knoppix 6.0.1 on a usb pen drive on one pc. What's the easiest way for me to see the other pc - Win 2K - on a wireless home network?

Thanks

Hi roquet, have you tried "wireless network" in the search facility (see nav bar link at the top of this page)?

nothing comes up when I search that, but I have read the posts about wireless networks and they didn't help. It doesn't really matter that it's a wireless network, I just don't know how to see a Windows share on the network and don't know where to start.

I've read about Samba (is it installed with 6.0.1?) and pyNeighborhood but don't know enough to use them.
