OK, so you are trying to perform action like folders sharing in your network with a mix of windows boxes and linux boxes.Originally Posted by polhen
So you need to perform three types of setup configurations (i.e. Linux to Linux, Linux to Windows and Windows to Linux)
1. Linux to Linux
To setup Linux to Linux directories sharing, you need NFS. See the FAQ 7 of the following link or search for NFS on the linux site.
http://www.knoppix.net/wiki/Network_FAQ
2. Linux to Windows
To share Linux directories to windows machine, you need SAMBA. See FAQ 9 from the above link.
3. Windows to Linux
To share windows folders to Linux boxes, do the following:
3.1. Get the windows machine name or IP address (for example: WINBOX1)
3.2. Get the shared folder's name (for example: SHARE1)
3.3. Set it up on the windows box as usual.
3.4. On the Linux side, first create a directory as a mount point
3.5. Then run the mount command to mount the windows folder to the machine.Code:$ su #mkdir /media/winbox
Just created a FAQ 14 on the same link above, for more detail please check it out there.Code:# mount -t smbfs //WINBOX1/SHARE1 /media/winbox -o username=xxx,password=yyy
