I have two computers that I and a hub that i would like to network - currently I have no internet connection at this location. My client computer is running Linux (RH9), but my problem falls with not being able to setup xp pro as the server - as im a *nix man. Can someone give a brief run down of how to setup windows shares on my xp pro box?
