Re: [LUG] SMB Client download

["Peter Walker" <peter.walker@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Paul,

I'm not sure what you mean here.
If you are talking about connecting a Win98 box to a SAMBA share then
you already have that capability in the Win98 software.
If you want to mount SMB shares on your Linux box then I think smbfs is what you
want. I think this is supported as standard in the kernel, if you need any supporting
software then I would check out the Samba Home page.
http://samba.mirror.ac.uk/samba/samba.html
This is probably the best starting point for anything related to Samba.

Hope I haven't totally missed the point.

Pete.
