how to configure windows share? such as Network Places in microsoft windows xp, or like a network share on ubuntu? am having difficulty when trying to retrieve data from computers at my office that are connected using LAN cables. whether the necessary application package? please help me...and thank's B4

Hi !

Try using the application named "Gigolo" (you can install it via the package manager Gslapt)
The application is then located in the "System" menu.

Hope it helps.

Question: Is Gigolo really what we want to have? I've never really used it, but it seems it is a piece of sh** when it comes to "simple samba mounting"

PS: Hi nita

Gigolo comes with Salix by default. It does seem to do the job. You simply have to display the side panel to browse the network & show available Samba/Windows shares

Side panel... aaaahhh

If side panel doesn't work, you could simply create a new connection within gigolo.
