Hello all, I am using a Kubuntu computer (dual-boot) on a Windows LAN. I am able to the following: -Use Samba to access Windows shares using my domain name and password (I'm a Domain Admin). -Open Microsoft documents in Open Office (If I open Open Office first and then navigate my way to the share using the "Open" dialog box. -Have the machine show up in the Windows "Microsoft Windows Network" location in My Network Places. It shows up in its own workgroup, even though I listed the name of the domain in the "domain" line in the network preferences setup (KDE System Settings). This is what I would like to able to do; 1- When I click on the Microsoft document directly from the Konqueror window, Open Office displays it start up screen, but never opens. When I open the document from inside Open Office, it opens it, but says "Samba not fully supported. Only a local copy of the file will be created." And then it gives it some jibberish name - like kdefilepickerPX0BQa.doc" How do I get it to directly open the Microsoft document from the Konqueror window? How do I fix the Samba error? 2 - I would like to be able to RDP/VNC into the Linux box from Windows. I have a VNC viewer and a putty client. Both of these, as well as Windows "Remote Desktop Connection", all give me the "Connection refused" error. How do I fix this? 3 - I would like to share some folders on the Linux box to be accessible from Windows. I can see the Linux computer in the computer list, but when I click on it, it comes up with a login box. When I type my Linux user name and password (which is the same as my Windows variants), it does not accept the authentication. This never happened when I was running Ubuntu 5.04. The file system was just shared - I didn't set anything up or install any packages. Any help appreciated! Hohua
