I would like to know how to access windows files in within linux, thanks!
 
please don't reply to this thread, i've got it work already,
 
WRONG MESSAGE,

I STILL NEED HELP ON THIS TOPIC. I WAS TRYING TO STOP POSTERS FROM THE ALCATEL POST.

SOWIE!
 
Accessing in what way?

Via the network, of from a FAT-32-formatted drive on the system?
 
it's kinda funny how i have to answer my own question, it is as simple as typing this line to get my windows fat32 file system to be read in linux

for those that don't know how, open /etc/fstab and put the line below at the end

/dev/hda /mnt/winc vfat defaults 0 0

if u use scsi drive then change hda to sda and make sure the directory /mnt/winc exist as a placeholder
