[ale] file sharing Linux to XP

[Christopher Fowler]

Here is one question?

How do you get  WinXP to trust the linux box.  I have used my Linux
desktop as a new "Program Files" directory due to limited space on the
winders box.  Every time I execute a program installed there I get a
confirmation dialog from windows.
