get ip address
the commandyou want is ifconfig this will list the details of all your network interfaces. Probably the address you want is the second line down of etho starting inet addr:
Use these console Xterm commands to get the info you need
in my case the IP address is the one allocated to the wireless
card - wlan0

IP a.b.c
Your IP addresses must be the same (first 3 numbers), like 192.168.0.__ for Windows network, and must have the same Workgroup ID.
Then in Puppy, use Linneighborhood to browse the network - change its settings to the name of the Workgroup. Also set the mounting location (like /root/mnt ).
You will see shared directories in Windows. Right-click to mount, and put the file in the mounted directory.
