Re: Access windows network

Well, the obvious way to get into a windows network would be with a large rock..
*cough*

The non-obvious solution would be to use the samba client utilities.

If using KDE just open Konqueror or Krusader and type in "smb:/winmachine" or whatever the name of the windows puter is. KDE has SMB modules included, no need to install the samba package at all.
For Gnome/XFCE I think a valid smb.conf is needed- not sure though, as I'm a KDE guy.
