[14:26] and then point xp to your samba 'address' [14:26] OK, cool... Thay works, but the promission are the problem.. [14:28] arr well that's a very important linux lesson to learn right there [14:28] xubuntu20w: there are plenty of tutorials for samba online, maybe some on your particular language that will help [14:28] we can not know what is going wrong with your setup [14:28] you could try to connect to your other computers using gigolo [14:30] OK, Sorry for before, I have been thru all that I can find on-line, There must be some trick, that I do not see, I'm in IT and I do not get it ? [14:30] xubuntu20w: windows and linux are not always friends [14:31] you just need to figure out, my bet is something in windows is preventing you to connect properly [14:31] http://www.maketecheasier.com/manage-remote-filesystems-with-gigolo/ oh wow that looks simple [14:32] xubuntu20w: how do you do it with just windows?
