I am a happy newbie who works exclusively with linux at work, for 3 weeks now. There is my problem: I don't have access to the other computers (winXP) shared folders and printers. Using LinNeighboorhood, I can see the PC's, but I don't have access to them. If I boot my machine with Win XP, I don't have the problem. I have acces to Internet through the lan, and it works perfectly. Is it a protocol problem? Don't know. Thanks in advance for your help, Nicolas
