Never tried it but I beleive you can just type in an SMB URL in the file manager (Konqueror?) address bar like: smb:// This should give you a list of workgroups. You can drill down from there. The SMB URL draft indicates the full spec is: smb://[[[domain;]username[:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:port]/[[share/[dir/]file]]] but I don't think all of it works in KDE. Note server can be a workgroup or server name. So if: smb://myworkgroup/ refers to a workgroup you should get a list of servers. But if: smb://myserver/ refers to a server you should get a list of shares. If you do: smb://myserver/share/path/to/dir/ you get a list of files. Mike -- Greedo shoots first?
