Mdk 9.1 and all versions of windows
 

hello all mdk 9.1 users
sadly in my network i am the only one using linux and everybody is using Windows ranging from 98 to xp .. i can see their computers but i just cant open it ..
is there a solution of this problem ?

I use LinNeighbourhood to browse the windows PCs on my network. Fire it up, and it will give show a tree of the groups on your network,

right click on the group you want to browse and chose "rescan group" and it should give you a listing of all the machines in that group, right click & chose "rescan machine" or "scan as user" (if rescan doesn't work) to get a list of the shared directories.

You can then mount these directories into your file system (in the same way you would a drive), again, by right clicking and choosing the right option.

By the way, this is the n00b way of doing things. you can also edit your samba.conf file to mount shared dirs on boot.
