Hi have a PII 350 with 64mb and 6 gig hdd. I've had Puppy on this computer as I've had it on there before but had to remove because my wife needed to run a couple of programs for my 4yr old so I put Win 2000 on it. That need is gone and win 2000 is horrible. What I really want to know is can I use this machine with puppy as a print and file server for my other xp macines. Will samba run on puppy?
Thanks

I am sitting here with 431 running and if I click "menu" then "network" I can see samba as an option. So that would be a yes it does run and comes as part of the install!
