I am not sure what you are doing here. Is this a dual boot machine and you are trying to access the XP data when booted to Linux? If that is the case, and you are using NTFS on XP then you have a 2 step process to go thru. 1. download and install the NTFS module for FC from http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/rpm/ 2. Create a mount point for the ntfs filesystem and mount it. Then you can access the data (only as "read only" reliably). If on the other hand this is one of 2 machines that are running and you want to access the data on the XP machine you will have to set up samba and turn on sharing on XP. (Samba is what you referred to as the Windows File Server) Samba will only run when Linux is running so it is worthless for your needs if you are dual booting. > _________________________________________________________________ > Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!
