Hi Steve, how are you getting on with pyneighborhood ?
I'm following the link I sent you. I've gotten the file sharing turned on on the win xp-home machine, created a folder, put something in it, allowed sharing of the folder (which it now shows as shared) and turned on the guest account. Access via WiFi is enabled. On my Lubuntu machine, I've altered the mount point to /home/phillw as per the suggestion, removed the default filemanager suggestion and put in pcmanfm as the file manager (the part where it says to use, eg, nautilus). I get to the part where I put in the network name (The Network Name for where I am) and press "Try to retrieve missing data" and .... it just blanks out the network name. I'm connecting (or trying to) by WiFi, if that would make any difference. Thanks, Phill.
