Hi all. First, thanks to everyone for all the suggestions with regards to running XP under Linux. For now, I have received a second computer on which is installed XP. I access it using rdesktop. Now, I would like to set up samba so I can share files between the two. I started googling the subject, but I was unable to see the forest due to the abundance of trees.
Please tell me what I need to learn to get started with a minimum setup which will allow me to share files between my Linux box and my XP box. I am not sure if this is crucial, but the XP machine is part of a (LDAP) domain. TIA.
