Thanks much, Steven.

I could use some help from my fellow Windows-users:

I read your 4 steps on how to use the smbclient.

But thus far my Windows networking of two computers has used only the 
NetBEUI protocol (whatever that is) with my Ethernet card.

I am guessing that TCP would be involved somehow in the Windows <-> Linux 
thing?

Can someone explain how to make this computer,when running MS-Windows, 
accessible from the other one, which would be running BL3.3 and the new 
smbclient?

Thanks again,

Sheldon Isaac
