How can I share files from the Linux Server to the MAC OS X or Microsoft Windows machines?
On both the MAC OS X and Microsoft Windows machines you can use Samba Server. Follow the instructions as you did for enabling printing via Samba and make sure you additionally check file sharing . You may want to edit the file sharing to choose who can log in and which directories they can see. Note, the default is for everybody to see everything! A more secure alternative is NFS Server. You go to YAST | Network Services | NFS Server to enable this. Be extra careful about your directories you export to be seen on your network. Here I would also not go with the defaults. You will need an NFS client for Microsoft Windows. There are ones out there made by WRQ INC. and Hummingbird INC. The MAC OS X has one built in. Follow these instructions to enable it using the Netinfo utility.
