Greetings,

Is it possible to login to an NT network with my Linux laptop?

Thanks in advance,

Not quite as terse (or concise):
http://www.samba.org

You need to run Samba on your laptop.  Its docs
look daunting, but it's really not too bad.  Just set it
up with the minimum of stuff in the smb.conf file
and add stuff after you get it working.

Nope.
If all you want to do is mount NT shares on your Linux system or print to an NT shared
printer from your Linux system, you only need the smbfs support in your kernel and the
smbmount utility.

A full samba install would allow you to share the laptop's resources with
the rest of the LANMAN ("Microsoft Networks") environment. You're laptop would become
a peer machine rather than a client machine.

1. NT nfs client, NT xwindows client?

Hi,

I have a port to do of a C++ project from NT to Linux. I just installed
RH5.2 (which happens to be lying around here) on a i86 PC and everything
works fine, GCC is already installed, xwindows (XFree86) starts OK, I can
ftp and telnet from my NT machines etc. I have been impressed that
everything installed so smoothly. I have a couple of questions:

(a) I have a problem using my Belkin Omniview switch. When I switch from my
NT machine to my Linux machine (running X) the mouse screws up on Linux. It
seems to be 'caught' in the top right of the screen. I can solve this my
stopping and restarting X but that's a pain everytime you switch from one
machine to the other. Any ideas? It's an MS PS/2 intellimouse and behaves
fine with X until I switch to the NT machine and back.

(b) Does anyone have recommendations for lowish cost NT-based nfs and
xwindows clients?

Regards

Alan Ambrose
