 : That is what I understod the question the poster was asking.
 : Have a look at the man pages for mount and fstab.
 : When the system boots it looks at fstab to see what filesystems should
 : be mounted. You can put an entry like:
 : /dev/hda1 /mnt/dos/c msdos  defaults,gid=500 0 0
 : where gid is set to the group id that you want to be assigned to the 
 : c files.

Doesn't there have to be some sort of daemon running on the '95 box or
is this via smbd on Linux?
