What distribution of >Linux are you using? > I am using Slackware 8 I thought about Samba but it seems kind of overkill. Is there much overhead having it running all the time? Or can I just start it up when I want to move files? Would it be possible to burn cdr's over the network through Samba? I have all SCSI on my Linux box and would never want to pollute it with IDE/ATAPI ;-) but the drive are so much less and are outdated so fast it would be a nice work around if you could do it. ie: 'cdrecord /mnt/samba/windows_box/cdrw_drive/file.iso' Thanks! -- Dave Erickson ( http://www.rightwithgod.org )
