OKay I went through the NHF and through a book for RH8 and got Samba installed and working (at least I think so). My question is how do I access a share on a windows xp box and mount it on my Linux God box? I know I'm missing this ........ forgive me I'm a n00b :)

DAMN YOU BILL GATES AND YOUR INSIPID WINDOZING!

install the samba-client package, then you will be able to use smbmount and smbumount to access windows shares. An easy way to do this is with the program LinNeighborhood. Search freshmeat for it.
