Objective being, all I want is to be able to access directories on my linux box from my windows box via Explorer for drag & drop. I can mount on my linux box, folders being shared by the windows machine. I have been able to do that for a while (I love LinNeighborhood). I just wanna do the reverse. Thank you guys for all your help, I know my q's are pretty basic but this just doesnt make any sense to me and I gotta go basic.
