    Sharing Folders

    I have an external HD attached to 1 of my ubuntu machines. I right click and click sharing options. But I can't mount this on any other ubuntu machine I have. Please help.

    Ok, well wish this had been posted somewhere, you have to:

    sudo smbpasswd -a username

    No place on help.ubuntu.com did it mention this.
