have to install samba on you Linux computer.samba is a software that allows you to connect a Linux computer to a Windows using NetBIOS to share folders and drives between both OS.almost every Linux distribution comes with samba, but if you don't have it, download from: http://www.samba.org/.

once u installed it , u can connect to your windows box using this command
smbclient -L \\COMPUTER -I 198.168.x.x <---- windows ip
by this u will be able to see the shared folders in the win box.

oh..for the printer , if u runing redhat/fedora try the printtool command,and click on "New", u will get a set up wizard, for suse , use the yast2 command.

Samba!

Thanks, Is there any recommended books for troubleshooting Linux? :lol::lol:

The book I've almost worn out is

A Practical Guide to Linux

Or you can use smbmount (or mount -t smbfs) //path/to/shared/dierctory /local/mountpoint {any options here}

Notice that FORWARD slashes are used under *nix. Backslashes are used for an entirely different thing.

If you have entries in your /etc/hosts file, or a working local DNS server, you can use the machine name instead of IP for mounting remote directories.

Reference:
man smbmount
man mount
man smbclient

suggestion install that NT HDD into the *NIX box then it will show up on the *nix desktop (root) as /Windows/c
