Hopefully I can get a little help on this.

I'm running FC3 on a laptop,
on my LAN I got 2 windows XP boxes

I need to access the shared folders of the windows XP's in X

I have been able to use samba to browse a share from the console, but I really wants to do this in X.

Anyone have an idea on this?

i use LinNeighbour to access my Window shares. Or, if u use Xfce 4.2 the file browser will allow you to do this as well.
Hope this helps

How can I tell if I got Xfce 4.2?

use the smb protocol in your file browser(nautilus or konqueror, i presume)

or in gnome use network servers first option in menu at the botton (above the system related)

From GNOME, open your home folder (on the desktop). File>connect to server>Service type needs to be "windows share". Type in the ip address of your windows box (I have no success using the computer names) in the Server box. Type in the name of the share (you'll get this from Windows). You need to enter the Windows user name. I seem to remember leaving the other boxes empty.

Once complete, this will create a "shortcut" one the desktop. Double click on it and you will be asked for the Windows password for that account (remember the windows username) and you should then see the Windows shared folder.

Get back if you have no joy. Good luck.

This worked great, and was just what I was looking for..
Thanks alot for the help
