Windows from Linux


Hi,

I am a newbie at Linux. I am using Fedora Core 1. I am connected to a network

with all windows users except me.

Now i don't know how to access the shared files of the other windows users on my

Linux machine

I guess for accessing files of a Linux machine from a windows machine u need to

setup a samba server but what about vice versa

I am completely new to networks with Linux and need of real help

You can use samba to connect to the windows shares from your linux box as well.
