HB=> I guess you mean Linux locally to interface remotely to a MS system.

HB=> For MS file sharing you can use unix (Linux) samba.
         Samba is written for unix to interface to MS file sharing.

HB=> For printing, just set it up in printcap as a remote printer. You
         have to ensure, though, you present printing data compatible
         with the printer. Proper filters. Mostly Post Script.

Both facilities require that you are allowed as a user at the MS facility.

Hope this can help a little.

Hans.
