samba - Feb 2003 - Networking linux machines in windows environment

HI,

  I am a new user to this group. Presently I am doing networking 
linux machines in my windows network environment. I am able to 
access linux server from windows machines but I am not able to 
access linux server from linux workstation. Is samba server is 
enough for doing this task? Or some thing else is needed?

Reply soon,

Regards,
Rajesh.K

You can use Samba and smbmount for this, but you might be better off
using a native unix-unix protocol like NFS:
