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?
