Hi,
I am trying to get my Sparc 5 to print and associate files with my PC network at home. I have NFS software on my PC running windows 2000, but it is very daunting to configure. I can ping my sparc 5 from any PC on the network, but the Sparc cannot ping any PC on the network. There are a lot of terms in UNIX that I am not yet familiar with (RPC, ICMP, etc) and I would like to be able to set up networking communications between my PCs and Sparc and am wondering where to start and what are the requirements (DNS server, APache server, etc) I just don't know exactly what I need to really get things going. Any help is appreciated, Thanks!
