impossible to share files: menu item disappeared

Post by terribile »

Hi,

I just installed lubuntu.
I don't see the possibility to share resources in my lan: there isn't the contextual menu item "share files or folders": why? is this normal on lubuntu? I have already installed samba.

I apologize for my ignorance and for my english.

Thank you

Hi
I'm new in linux world and I also have a problem to share files with Lubuntu.
Samba and Pcmanfm 0.9.8 are installed.
How can I share a folder for my other PC under windows 7 ?

Thanks

Having same problem. I have found something here. http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=175&t=45332 But it is not very helpful. There must be an easy way. PCManFM should handle sharing and browsing Samba shares I think. I hope someone can lead us to find a solution.
Thanks in advance.
Yes, I advised you but you did.
