This is not NetBios with a browser to see other drives. You can configure you Linux machine for connectivity in many ways. Like NFS, Samba, etc. In order to evaluate the connectivity you've established you can use ping, Telnet, ftp, traceroute and ifconfig. For starters...run ifconfig at the command line and see if you have basic connectivity. Then ping other IPs and have other IPs ping you. See if you can find your box using the IP name not IP. See if you can Telnet in. If you can do these you established basic connectivity and can move on to more interesting configuration options.
Hope that helps

Subject: Network card installation
I am trying to get Redhat 5.2 to recognize my Linksys Lne100tx network
card. Under Win95 it works ok. I went into the control panel for the
kerneld configurator and added the eth0, tulip driver and i/o address of
0x7800. Then went into netconfg and added the machine's name and ip
number etc. Reboot the machine and I see in the startup messages
"delaying eth0 initialization". What does this mean? Any suggestions
would be welcome.
Once this is working, how do I "see" the drives on the other networked
computers?
Thanks.
Jim
