I know you don't like questions concerning Brand X (w95 and nt40),
however, I am a NEWBEEEEE to RedHat Linux (5.1) and I don't know
where to go for this answer. Over my internal network, when I try
to get into the RedHat (5.1) machine using Brand X (nt40 SP4), I
get the message "\\computer4 is not accessible" "the account is
not authorized to log in from this station" I don't have a problem
with the other Brand X product (W95 OSR2.1), it goes right in. I
have no problems with FTP or TELNET with either of the Brand X
machines. Without getting tooooo condescending, is this a Brand X
problem or is it a RedHat (5.1) issue?

The big problem here is with the phrase "get into."
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
By this you seem to mean "share files on my
<A HREF="http://www.redhat.com/">Red Hat</A>
(Linux) system from on of my MS Windows clients"
or "make my Linux system a file server to my MS Windows
clients."
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
My clue that this is your intent is from the syntax
"\\computer4" is an SMB UNC (so-called "universal naming
convention") designation which is used for file and
print services over the SMB protocols (server message
block).

Samba is the Unix/Linux package that provides SMB
services to your MS Windows, OS/2, and similar clients.
Also Linux supports an '<tt>smbfs</tt>' module and '<tt>smbmount</tt>'
command to allow it to act as a client in an SMB network.
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
So, install the Samba package from your RH CD set,
and read the docs therefrom. For the latest information
on Samba go to:
