Hi
I am using Linux FC3.
I enabled network in my system.
I am able to access WindowsXP,98,system through my system.
i am unable to access 2000SERVER,2000 systems.
When i try to view those systems it is giving fallowing message.
The folder contents could not be displayed.You do not have the permissions necessary toview the contents of "Windows Network: indu".
here "indu " is system name.
so what to do.

thanks in advance.

regards
harsha

You can share a whole drive of Windows 2000 & then map that drive over to your linux box

using command given below:
mount -t smbfs -o username=<win-2000-username>,password=<win2k-usrname-passwd> //<win2k-IP>/<sharename> /mnt/win2k

Prior to this
mkdir /mnt/win2k

The query you placed includes GUI, which cannot be answered in exact & useful manner.
Thats why i posted an alternate manner.
