Windows to Linux transformation...

Dear Fellow members and respected Seniors,

I was fedup of the 'unstable' MS Windows XP environment. So, I have installed Redhat Linux 8.0
I am trying hard to learn it and up to some extent I have been successful in that.

I am using cablenet and my cable net operator was used to give sharing on his PC containing movies songs etc. I used to find that sharing in a PC in network neighbours with its ip 192.168.0.10 (Local Lan)

Now I wanted to know.. that from where in LINUX i can go and access the shared documents and files on other PCs of the network...

I hope that i will find my answer here.

Thank You

SaLiK

i use a program called LinNeighborhood which lets you mount shared network folders on your local computer for easy access.

I used that for a while. I found one I like better: SMB4K. Both will need samba in order to work. You might want to try another distribution than RedHat8, as its a bit old and won't be easy to find programs and packages for. If you need other help, though, just ask...

Please do not post the same thread in more than one forum. Picking the most relevant forum and posting it once there makes it easier for other members to help you and keeps the discussion all in one place.
