How To Network openSUSE 12.3 And Windows

March 19, 2013, 15:01(EDT) By Eric (a.k.a. TweakHound)

This article will show you how to network openSUSE 12.3 with Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8.
It is assumed that you are using the openSUSE default desktop, KDE4 (you’ll need Samba client/server installed).
Any Windows machines should NOT be using the HomeGroup option but instead use the advanced sharing option.
How to share Windows files is not covered. If you can’t do that, well, Linux may be out of your league 😉
This article applies to workgroups only, not domains.

This guide will show you how I dual-boot and multi-boot openSUSE 12.3 with Windows 7 and/or Windows 8.

The method I use keeps Windows in charge of the boot process. To achieve this I use a program called EasyBCD.
