Assuming the "other PCs" are sharing files using the SMB protocol, in Lubuntu, by default you use pcmanfm, not Nautilus, as a file browser. In pcmanfm, click on Go -> Network Drives, and browse to the desired machine and share. As others have already noted, there are shortcuts involving typing in URLs with unusual schemas such as smb: or network: you can use, but that is not necessary, you can stay fully "point and click" and access files shared on other machines. If you are reviewing pcmanfm, or comparing it to Nautilus, please be sure to take the time to explore all of its menus :) Jonathan _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
