This article lists what is possible regarding Linux-Windows Interoperability.

You work on a Linux computer

  • If you want to access or provide network drives, use samba.
  • If you want to control a Windows computer, use rdesktop.
  • To send a message to a Windows computer use
echo "hallo" | smbclient -M netbiosComputerName &> /dev/null

You work on a Windows computer

Other

  • If you want to use a USB disk with Linux and Windows and you want to use files greater than 2GB, use ntfs.
  • If you want to use your keyboard and mouse on any computer, use synergy.
  • If you want to boot Linux with the Windows bootloader
dd if=/dev/hda3 bs=512 count=1 of=/windows/C/bootsek.lin
In die c:\boot.ini folgendes eintragen:
c:\bootsek.lin="Linux"
Note
Why dual-boot if you can have virtual machines?
