and I am sure you want to make the server on Linux accessible by users on windows?

Please read thoroughly and then post your reply with all the answers

you can use samba server for this purpose

Code:

#yum -y install samba

Code:

#vi /etc/samba/smb.conf

workgroup = (your workgroup)
hosts allow 127. 192.168.0. (give the Ip range of your network)

(at the bottom)
[share name]
        comment = share
        path = /pippo
        valid users = abc xyz john etc
        writable = yes
        create mask = 0766
        browseable = yes

I think you should know this

there is a lot of space on this blog to nicely elaborate your problem
So kindly utilize that space and nicely explain your problem with all the aspects if you really want anyone to help you

It is not possible for anyone to ask you every small meaning of your each post
Its really irritating reading such shortcuts
