X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk : I would like my FreeBsd boxes to provide file services to Windows 95. : I understand there is a product called SAMBA that provides NetBEUI (?) : based print services. Does it also act as a File Server ? Yes. : Alternatively is there a public domain NFS for W95 that will talk to BSD ? Don't think so. Using SAMBA is a tried and true method. Check the samba web pages for more info. There is a samba port for freebsd, but in my experience it compiles out-of-the-box anyway. Samba is another great Auzzie product :) Peter -- Peter Childs --- http://www.imforei.apana.org.au/~pjchilds Finger pjchilds@al.imforei.apana.org.au for public PGP key
