Networking

[Trent Shipley]

Q: To browse from Red Hat to NT4 I used smbclient.  Is there a more
convenient option that turns a Linux machine into an SMB client?

Q: I have heard *nothing* good about NIS/NFS.  Will I be forced to use NFS
to network the Red Hat, SuSE, and FreeBSD machines?


-------------------------------------

+ SuSE (laptop), Red Hat, and NT4 ping each other !
+ Red Hat Samba daemons run
+ NT4 box sees Red Hat Box
+ NT4 box accesses files on Red Hat !
+ Red Hat sees NT4
+ Red Hat accesses files on NT4
- Red Hat prints to HPLJ-1100 on NT4 !
+ Red Hat prints to HPLJ-1100 on Red Hat
- NT4 prints to HPLJ-1100 on Red Hat

- SuSE networks to NT4 !
- SuSE networks to Red Hat (over Samba?)
- Compile C++ 'Hello World' program on SuSE !  (Need to get to work on Rio
Salado C++ class)

- Repeat with little FreeBSD box.
