I have a linux mandrake and a nt 4 server in my network . I want to read a log file from linux in my nt server.
Can any body help me please ?Thanks.

Have you tried making a Samba connection? SMB/NetBIOS is how Windows computers talk to each other. Samba is the Linux version. I have actually had problems getting my Linux machines to talk to NT servers that are not PDCs, so this may cause you some problems. Otherwise:
smbclient //evil_server/c -U happy_user
As long as happy_user is a valid user in the server's user list, you shouldn't have TOO many problems getting the file. smbclient is an FTP style program (get, put, etc) You can also try:
smbmount //evil_server/c /mnt/server_mount -U happy_user
Check out linux.com for where to get samba. Most newer distributions come with samba, you may just need to install it.

yes, you need samba, however you won't be able to read the ntfs drives without ntfs compatibility in the kernel.
email me asap, and i will explain...
