Does anyone know : what I need to make windows95 machines talk to a Linux server? I've set up my linux system at home to talk to my W95 laptop (and my A/UX box too). I installed samba on the linux box to serve files and run the usual TCP/IP applications on the W95 box to allow for terminal access, file transfer etc. Setting up samba was about 1/2 an hours work (just build the software and follow the install instructions!). Try http://lake.canberra.edu.au/pub/samba/ for more details on samba. -- Huw Davies | e-mail: Huw.Davies@latrobe.edu.au Information Technology Services | Phone: +61 3 9479 1550 Fax: +61 3 9479 1999 La Trobe University | "My Alfas keep me poor in a monetary Melbourne Australia 3083 | sense, but rich in so many other ways"
