| 202071 | 2003-12-22 05:30:00 | good work, have u posted under mozilla yet? | ilikelinux (1418) | ||
| 202072 | 2003-12-22 05:56:00 | 2 probs... 1. mozilla wont load, only konqueror will 2. the internet is slow... maybe that will have something to do with lack of ram. i'll be getting 256mb worth of EDO-DRAM soon anyway to accompany the 32mb SD-RAM thnx megaman |

| 202073 | 2003-12-22 06:23:00 | is mozilla installed? | ilikelinux (1418) | ||
| 202074 | 2003-12-22 09:07:00 | You may want to look at MozillaFirebird, or for a smaller browser try epiphany which is semi-integrated wtih GNOME 2.4 IIRC (Wont be with Mandrake 9.0 though I believe).... | Chilling_Silently (228) | ||
| 202075 | 2003-12-23 00:00:00 | mozillas installed, and it will load. its a little slow though. anyway how do i do some basic file sharing? samba is on linux if i remember. i would like to share stuff like CD-ROM drives, as the new one doesnt like my old scratched cds with windows 95 games (yes they work) and my old drive hates the pcworld cds which have good programs like openoffice. will it matter if the linux drive has to read windows disks to share them? and i would like to open .doc and mp3s under mandrake. also the old floppy is overridden with dust and doesnt work and would like to share the windows xps one cheers |

| 202076 | 2003-12-23 01:32:00 | Nope, wont matter at all :-) You're right, Samba's what you're after. Search some of my past posts for "smb.conf" XMMS will play MP3's (Its a WinAmp clone) and try AbiWord or OpenOffice for .doc files Chill. |

| 202077 | 2003-12-23 05:10:00 | no samba is in fact on the box. how do i use it is the question | Megaman (344) | ||
| 202078 | 2003-12-23 06:11:00 | There's two ways of using Samba To mount network shares To share folders Try this (as root): mkdir /mnt/smb mkdir /mnt/smb/share1 (Those are just examples...) mount -t smbfs -o username=Administrator,password=12345 //192.168.0.3/C /mnt/smb/share1 That final command will mount the shared folder "C" from 192.168.0.3 onto /mnt/smb/share1 using the username Administrator and password 12345. Change it to suit. Look at my past posts for information on setting up smb.conf so you can share folders from your HDD :-) Otherwise, look into downloading Webmin Cheers Chill. |
