Hi,
I am a BSD newbie.  I have used linux for years from Redhat 7.0 to 9.0 
and SuSE 9.1 to 10.1.  I was able to setup samba very easily on redhat 
9.0 and below but could never get it to work on SuSE and I just 
installed FreeBSD 6.1 on my dell laptop and I am wondering if any one 
has any tips on how to set it up (correctly) so I can share files 
between my win xp Desktop and my BSD laptop over a wireless network 
connection.  Anyhelp would be greatly appreciated!!

Thank you in advance,

Mathew Stahl
