some networking questions

[David Mandala]

You installed the correct thing, you need SAMBA to do this. Now you need
to run SWAT and connect to on your linux box by going to localhost:901
and adding yourself as a local user and putting your password into
samba. 

Then start smb and nmb and your off to the races.

I could tell you more but I need to know what distribution of Linux you
are running. IF RedHat then you need to configure xinetd to allow swat
to run.

Cheers,
