Hi
Hope I understand your request and not telling you something you already
know!
How are you getting to "see" the shared folder on your Iyonix? Where are
you "seeing" it from? Your RPC or your PC?
Anyhow going the other way, RISCOS to PC, is relatively simple. Depending
on your level of RISC OS on your RPC you may have !Omniclient available to
you - I think you have to have RO 4.xx for this to be true. A better bet
would be to buy a copy of Lanman98 to allow which is an improvement on Omni
in many ways.
With your Iyonix you should have a copy of !Omniclient on your machine.
In both cases you can set up networking with your PC so that you can see
your PC's harddisk and push stuff from your RO machines onto it.
Once you have got this far, three machines networked, you will need to have
a router/hub of some sort to make it all work so why not just get them all
onto the internet using one ADSL router and there will be no more need for
OE!
See http://www.riscos.org/networking/riscos.html
http://www.riscos.org/networking/xp.html
for some useful info on networking RO machines
There's lots more but it's a start! There will be problems, especially
with Windows XP machines but nothing insurmountable.
Cheers
Alan
