| Using Samba on a linux server is a possibility of that what you're asking as well that you then can use NetDrive for OS2 to have proper connections to samba file servers. |

| OS/2 already has decent file serving ability, samba can be used from within OS/2 (through netdrive) to access shares, though I have always just used the built in browser without any issues. |

| Agree, if for smaller home and soho networks the peer network will do a proper work. |

| There is an older port of Samba to OS/2, available at: http://www.jacco2.dds.nl/samba/samba2.html It might be possible to use some of the OS/2 patches available there to apply to newer versions of Samba. -Fahr |
