Hi,

When the RedHat Server come in you will need to make it a part of the local Domain by configuring the network setting. This can easily be done from either the KDE or GNOME GUI. Under the system menu, their will be a network option. Click on it to assign the RedHat Linux Box a name and domain like LinuxSer1.mydomain.com. Also, you will need to assign the linux box an IP address, a netmask, a gateway, etc. Also, you should setup other computer that are part of the domain on the RedHat Linux Box.

Once the Linux Box has it network setting in place, you should determine what services you want to initiate when the Linux Box is started. This can easily be done by typing setup at a command prompt. If your not sure what a particular service is, you can type something like "man smb" at a command window or prompt and help will be provided. The "man" command should be used inplace of help in a linux environment and a manual about the particular subject will be displayed if avaiable. Be sure smb and swat system services are selecled. The smb system service starts samba, and swat is a browser interface to administer samba. To begin with I would make the entire Linux partition a samba share. After you get your feet web you will want to modify samba to better meet your needs.

Once samba is configured, it will appear in all window computer's network neighborhood. You can fire up explorer from window NT/2000 computers to browse the Linux Box. Also, you can setup shortcut in the window boxes to access the linux docs. Then it's a simple matter to click on the shortcut to have access to your linux docs.

I will check back as I can and try to help answer more specific question once you get started. I have recently upgraded to Redhat Linux 7.3 from Redhat Linux 7.1, so some of the 7.2 interface may be a little different than the 7.1 or 7.3.
