Linux to Linux, Windows to Linux.

I suck at searching this site for certain things, so I'm just going to ask and if the answer is somewhere in one of the other threads, please forward me to them.

I can access shared drives on my Red Hat Linux 7.3 machine from my Windows 98 machine via Samba. What I need to know is, how to access shared folders on my Windows 98 machine from my Red Hat Linux 7.3 machine. Do I use Samba for it as well? I'm also planning on bringing up another Red Hat Linux 7.3 (or 8.0) box to use as a firewall, so how do I share folders between two linux machines? Thanks in advance.

you can mount a windows share like this:

# mount -t smbfs -o username=windowsusername,password=windowspassword, workgroup=windowsworkgroup //x.x.x.x/sharefolder /mnt/locationtomount

To share files between linux boxes, you can use samba mounts or nfs

do:

# man nfs
