Hi again!

As I mentioned now I am able to access Internet from different OS's installed on my computer they have different browser like Netscape, Konqueror, IE6,IE5, so who can I keep a "catalog" of these bookmarks & favorites.
-----
I can boot up from 4 different operating system so, if I used WindowsME I found an interesting Web page so I saved it like a favorite in IE5.
Later I use Suse, here I use Konqueror/Netscape I find another different web page so I save it.
What do I have to do to access those web pages from different OS's without having to reset my computer?

Do I have to use LDAP?
thanks
 
Never been able to access linux files on the same computer while in windows. Works fine the other way though. The problem is if the windows side is NTFS, you cannot write to it. Linux will only mount it in read only mode, even mounting it manually with the correct parameters, (-o rw). Since you cannot write to the windows side and cannot read from the linux side, I don't know of a solution, but if anyone else does, I would certainly like to try it.
 
hi!

I forgot to mention I have a Linux Server running Suse 8.0, I have already installed Apache, mysql, mod_php and samba, also I have installed LDAP server but I don't If I could get in trouble using LDAP server, I've downloaded the LDAP server manual from but it is a little difficult because I've not ever used it.
So I could use my server machine to store all the favorites/bookmarks but I am not so sure what program I should use.
 

Active PHP Bookmarks is the answer, i have a similar setup with various OS's and various browsers. Stick this on your linux box and set all the default homepages of your browsers to the location of the php bookmarks.

Works great! :)
