I've found Samba to be the best way: $ sudo apt-get install cifs-utils samba $ sudo mv /etc/samba/smb.conf /etc/samba/smb.conf.bak
$ sudo nano /etc/samba/smb.conf add: [beagleshare] comment = beaglebone support share path = /home/william/ writeable = yes valid users = william guest ok = no security = user $ sudo smbpasswd -a william $ sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart $ sudo nano /etc/hosts.allow add: ALL: LOCAL Windows PC: Click start Right click MyComputer, or ThisPC Select Map Network Drive In the folder field put in the share name. In my case: \\192.168.254.XXX\beagleshare Check the Checkbox for "Connect using different credentials" Click Finish. User name, and password will be username and password you entered for smbpasswd.
