There is also a port of SAMBA that will allow a Windows workgroup 
machine (WFW 3.11, Win 95, Win-Nt) to mount drives from the Amiga.  I 
use this to mount my Par Card and render directly from my P166 to my 
Personal Animation Recorder.  You can't mount drives from the Windows 
machine, but works to transfer files from the Windows machine to the 
Amiga!
