Please try opening nautilus and navigating to smb://localhost (Control+L to bring up the location bar) on the machine that's hosting this share and seeing if the share is listed there. Also, please attach your /etc/samba/smb.conf file and the output of "net usershare info"
Sometimes it may take some time for shares to appear on a remote computer -- even Windows, where the smb protocol was originally used, can't detect shares from other computers sometimes. -- Kind regards, Chow Loong Jin (GPG: 0x8F02A411) Ubuntu Contributing Developer -- Cannot share a folder via right click on folder->sharing options->share this folder https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/476958 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
