How can I share NAS directory on Debian Linux workstation?

Tags:

Storage and File Systems

Hi,

My network hosts a WindowsXP system, a Debian Linux system, and an Infrant ReadyNAS V network attached storage device. They talk with one-another through Samba.

When I'm working with my WindowsXP system, I can access my NAS files through various applications. If I launch notepad, for instance, I can access NAS files through file/open.

On my Debian system, however, I can access NAS file through the file browser, but not through the applications. If I launch gedit, for instance, I can only access the local file system.

How can I configure Samba, Debian, or whatever, so that my Linux applications can read and write the NAS files?

Once I have this configured, I'll pretty much be ready to ditch Windows.

Many thanks,

Lloyd
