Hi Bill, I really think you should create a new Wiki page and document exactly what you had problems with, and how you got it going. This a) helps other people in a similar situation to get theirs going, and maybe more importantly b) documents it for you yourself for next time so you don't forget what steps you took :) Maybe a page like http://www.wlug.org.nz/WirelessSetupNotes or something...

Can transfer from Windows to/from Linux (appears in My Network Places > Entire Network) but not from Linux to/from Windows.

Do I use Samba or what way do I access the network from Linux?

Samba's probably the easiest way to get a windows machine and a linux machine talking in both directions, or if the linux machine is more of a server then a webserver like apache might be enough... John.

samba is the obvious option. You could also set up an ftp server (and use windows built-in ftp, cuteftp, filezilla, etc) or an http server (if you just want to pick up files off the linux box) or scp (part of ssh, probably already installed in Linux, use putty/pscp or winSCP under Windows) It's all educational. Learning is good++
