    Can I Link a Linux Laptop to a Windows 7 Desktop?


    I have a router with a Windows 7 PC and a Linux laptop both plugged into it via ethernet cables.

    Neither pc can see each other under 'network'.

    Where do I start?

    This is for Ubuntu to Win 7.
    You never said what version of Linux you were running

    I'm running a KDE version of Linux called 'Pardus', which is no longer being supported. In the very near future I'll be installing Linux Mint 13 so any help for Mint would be welcome.

    Thanks.
