Accessing Linux files from Win2K Professional

[BeGood]

I have a disk full of Linux files that I need to look at from my Win2k
professional desktop. The workstation has Windows Services For Unix 3.5 on
it. The disk connects with a USB port. Unforunately, that is as far as I can
get. Looking at what documentation that I have been able to find so far, I
cannot find any easy way to make this happen.

Any suggestions?

Re: Accessing Linux files from Win2K Professional

I'm not 100% certain on this but I don't think there is any native way that
Win2k (or any flavor of Windows) can access Linux/Unix drives (files
systems). I think you'll have to look into something like Samba and share
the required files/folders. You also may want to post your question on one
of the Linux forums.

Total Comander has plugin that connects Linux partions. Try to search in
that way.
