SKYPE in Linux Redhat 9

[srimaya_rath]

Hi All,

I've 2 OS installed in my computer. one is Redhat linux 9 and the 2nd one is WIN - XP Professional. I can access the WINDOWS drive from LINUX by mounting the drives.
1. How can I access the LINUX folders from WINDOWS?

2. How to unmount the USB drive in LINUX?

3. How to install Google Talk and Skype in Red Hat Linux 9? I got the info that through GAIM, I can speak with others. I tried but in vain... Please guide me.

Thanks,
Srimaya

1. You'll need a third party software like ext2fs (http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net/ext2.html)

2. in terminal

umount </path/mounted>

3. How do I configure Gaim for Google Talk? (http://www.google.com/support/talk/bin/answer.py?answer=24073")

4. Always search or google before posting.

5. RedHat 9 is a pretty old distro, try to get something new like FC6
