[NTLUG:Discuss] Getting Linux and NT to play nice.

[Stephen Klein]

I figured as much, but had no way to verify it since I only use NT at
work (reluctantly).

I did manage to find an ms technet article about NET USE by doing a
search on Google.  Couldn't find anything with their knowledge base
since the return result would bomb Navigator (huh...imagin that). 
Instead of trying to use IE (I was on my Dad's computer) and work back
through the ms maze, I just used Google.


I'm hoping I have everything in place, now I just hope I won't run
across any gotchas trying to get SCO to talk to Linux using NFS.  I
checked the NFS-HOWTO, but it donesn't mention anything about SCO Unix
in the section about interoperating with other operating systems.

Wish me luck,
Stephen Klein
