Configuration of network between Pardus and WindowsXP
Introduction
I made this manual after a new installation of Pardus 2008.1 and WindowsXP Professional (+SP2).
Both computers are connected to a router or a switch.
[Apply] = activate the [Apply] button or select [this text].
{text} = the text in a window.
Setup of Pardus

if not green flag at samba: put cursor on samba > check mark at "Run on start' > Activate [Start service] (flag turns green).

As a default the /home/samba directory is configured as a shared directory. This directory will be readable from WinPC. Making this directory writable from WinPC will come later in this manual. As this directory is empty after a new installation, it is advisable to put a (image)file in this directory.
