How do I get my Windows and Linux boxes to see each other?

[Mean MrMustard]

I just set up Mandrake on one of my comps. It has internet access but I don't know how to see the other Windows computers. Is there an equivalent of "Network Neighborhood?" Windows computers can't see the Linux box either. Thanks.

You need Samba. Save yourself hours of frustration and install Webmin on your Linux box.

If you want to configure samba shares from web browser - use swat. It is installed on mandrake together with samba. By default it allows connection from localhost only though. Comment line in /etc/xinetd/swat.
