I'm sort of going through all this so I can keep editing my source in 
Textpad on windows and skip that extra step of using an ftp client to port 
the changes over to the unix server. It's all on the lan but still I think 
editing samba shares directly will be much easier. This shouldn't give me 
any conflicts either afaik, then again haven't started doing it this way yet.

Before even installing fbsd and linux I first installed Apache and Mysql on 
my XP workstation and actually got a development environment working 
properly. But it was for a Unix hosted website and the differences made me 
do so many little kludgey accommodations to hold it all together that I 
ended up going the route of installing unix.

Likely more than you wanted to know Rick.
