As far as I'm concerned, absolutely nothing. A similar question
doesn't necessarily have a similar answer. I have to point out that
you were given a solution, which was basically 'don't use samba',
which I think is a reasonable reply. I have to admit that I would
automatically use samba in such a situation myself as I have Linux
machines, Windows machines and Macs at home and it's really the only
common protocol for sharing directories across all three platforms,
but for Ubuntu-only, there are other solutions.

As per the op, if you didnt know something I saw that you asked him, so
what makes that any different to my situation, but instead of asking me,
I got a whole different thing altogether. Why is it that you ask one
person, and not another? Not directed at just one person.
I think in my origional message I talked about windows directory, when I
mentioned the Icons in Network. and not being able to mount on one. On
this machine I am using, its a windows machine, with my Ubuntu
partitioned. I can get to see the windows partition, but going to
Filesystem, but this machine cannot be found using the network. I asked
about using SSH, because it was something that maybe I might have been
able to use, but I could work out how to use it.
How do I get smbtree to even come up. Where is it? Maybe if I could get
that to work, I might get a reason why thispc wont share?
