Sorry, I should have been more informative. Presently, I have Samba set up on my FreeBSD machines. Windows can access the shared directories without any problems. I also have Putty installed on the Windows machines so I can directly access the FreeBSD boxes when required. I want the same functionality between the FreeBSD boxes. Eventually, at least one of them will be run headless; the mail server in particular. I can find a virtual cornucopia of information on networking Windows machines; Microsoft even includes a wizard to accomplish it. However, there does not seem to be as much information regarding non-Windows products. At present, all machines are connected, either wired or wireless, through a linksys router. -- Carmel carmel@hotmail.com Syntactic sugar causes cancer of the semicolon.
