Solve : Linux Server to Windows XPXP?

Answer»

I want to ACCESS my Linux server from Win xp client but i dont know how to do it?Without installing anything you can just use telnet from a DOS window, however if you want the flexibility to use ssh then instal putty on the XP system.

and if you need to display GUIS from your linux machine back to your XP system, then install Xming on the XP system.Might be helpful to point out that telnet is disabled on most modern Linux distributions, for security reasons.  Telnet SENDS all information in the clear, including passwords.  Any DISTRO worth its salt has openssh active on installation (UNLESS it's a locked-down distro).

I suspect that the OP wants to be able to access files from the XP workstation?  If so, Google "Samba".  Your Linux distro probably has lots of relevant documentation too.
