I have Mandrake 9 on my machine and can't look at the drives from another machine. What puzzles me is that when I run ipchains, I get unknown command. I thought that it installed and ran by default. Should it?

Chris,

IME Mandrake uses iptables, its preferred firewall is shorewall which is configured from the control centre. Having said that you don't have to use shorewall, you can write your own script if you wish.
