hi all
im having a problem connecting to my windows network via linux. I am not
the admin of this network and it is _not really secured_ as it uses
McCaffee antivirus and Firewall. The mccaffee firewall that we use
doesnt block against incomming network connections.

Hmmm - a firewall that doesn't block incoming isn't a firewall AFAIK
I think you mean doesn't block outgoing?

At any rate if you can use other Win machines on this network it's not
the problem.

Can you just clairfy - Windows XP Home? 98? 3.1? 2K?
And how do you log in when the Windows machine is powered up? Click a
name? or does it log directly into Windows without a log in page?
