Hey guys.

Ok here's my rig:

Cable modem going to a Linksys BEFSR41 (4 port router)... Then, 1 port goes to a computer, another one goes to a D-Link Wireless Access Point that feeds 3 or 4 computers.

I want the 5 computers to be able to work in a workgroup to share a printer, files, etc...

Thanks!
Alfonso

I am not seeing the question. Plug stuff in, see that the comps get IP addresses from the linux router and put them in a workgroup and share the files. mail me without the NOSPAM MAPSON if you need help troubleshooting or something

put everyone into the same workgroup
enable sharing on every pc
share something on every pc
load the print driver on every pc you want to print to the shared printer.
That's pretty much it.
