<div dir="ltr">Hi guys. I tried sharing files between two desktop computers, one of which is running Lubuntu LTS, the other is Windows XP. <br>
<br>
When I'm using Lubuntu on one desktop computer, I'm able to access the
shared files in Windows XP on the other desktop computer, using this:<br>
sudo apt-get install cifs-utils<br>
<br>
For vice versa, I used this:<br>
sudo apt-get install samba<br>
<br>
Windows XP sees the shared folders on the Lubuntu Machine thru "My
Network", but in order to access the files within those folders, I have
to type a username and password. I assume this is the password that I
use when running the sudo command in terminal, correct?<br>
<br>
The problem is even if I type in the username and password, I just can't
get to the files. The username and password entry box keep coming up.<br>
<br>
Any suggestions?
