I have one other Windows ME machine on my LAN. To access it, I have to create a share on the Windows box. Any type of share. Just right click on a folder and choose 'Sharing'. On that machine, I've got all of its drives sharing. If I want to access one, I have to open up Konqueror, the KDE web browser, and in the URL put: smb://wks02 wks02 is the name of the system. I have local DNS running and have told Windows ME to look for NetBIOS over DNS. I havent gotten file transfer to work very reliably, but it might be a setting of mine. --jwp On Wednesday 03 January 2001 12:38, Drew Tomlinson wrote: > Has anyone successfully used the SMB client in KDE 2.01?
