Hi there!

I have two Macs at home in the same room. Both have ethernet
capability and I can use shared directories to move from one to the
other quite easily ... for printing, etc.

Now when I try the same thing in linux ... I really get to have some fun.

I have given each a unique address in the 192.168.1.x range ... and a name etc.

As a result I can successfully 'ping' each machine from the other.

All attempts at something useful come to zero. FTP and telnet
connections are refused (thanks for the security) ... and i have not
yet mastered shared directories!

Is there a useful HOWTO that someone could direct me to please ... PLEASE!

Richard
