I have played around with this some, and my remastered CD's are set to share the whole knoppix filesystem and also just the /home's.

What I've determined is that, when running live from CD, you cannot connect to the writeable portion of your knoppix box- the dynamic ramdisk does not allow either nfs or samba to work. There is also a fixed ramdisk where for example /etc is kept. This can be connected to and even written to using NFS. I have been able to connect using NFS when I've created a persistent home, and when my mounted directory is within the persistent home, also with NFS.

I assume that properly configured samba shares (share for directories under /home/knoppix could also be accessed in this way when you run live and have a persistent home.

Hard drive installs naturally do not have this limitation, so any samba shares you create can be mapped into network drives in widnows as normal.
