You should not need to install packages (at least not explicitly).  
Under nautilus, right click on the folder you want to share, select 
sharing options and check the boxes that seem logical to you for your 
situation.  I'm not sure about the linked folder.  Should be easy enough 
to test if you don't get an answer.

Write back if you have problems -  something does not work.
