How can i create a wireless Network between two Windows Xp and Linux computers?

Q. Wireless Networking between Two Windows XP and Two Linux Computers, How is this Possible?

A. You set up a wireless network (for example by buying a wireless router in a computer store and installing it in your house). Then you can configure both your machines to connect to it (if you have all laptops, they usually have wireless already built into them, otherwise you can also get a router which has a few LAN ports in addition to the wireless).

When all machines are on the same network you can set up file sharing on the Windows machine, and the Linux machine will be able to browse to that computer with no additional setup required (on distributions such as Ubuntu, Fedora, and many more...). You do this from Linux by opening Nautilus (the default file browser on many Linuxes) and clicking the "Network" icon and browsing the network. You can also set up file sharing on Linux and browse to the Linux machine from Windows.

How do I make my Linux computer work with a wireless Belcan router?
Q. I need step by step instructions. I just had linux put on my desktop computer. I have a wireless adapter that plugs into the pc. Where do i get the software to run the router with Linux? can I download the install program onto a usb drive and then install it on the linux computer? will the linux computer even recognize the usb?

A. Hi
Which linux are you running?
When you type lsusb or lspci into the terminal can you identify which chip is in the usb? It will be at the bottom of the list.

At school, how can you send a message to another linux computer using the linux version of command prompt?
Q. I have been trying to figure out how to send a message to another linux computer at school for a while now by using the linux version of command prompt. I have tried using the write command but it says I have write abilities disabled. I have also tried using smbclient -M accountnamehere and it always says failiure to connect to whatever account I tried to connect to. Any help would be awesome.

A. Maybe you as a normal user just don't have the rights to do so. It's probably so for security reasons.
