    You may need to install Samba

    oh man
    the installation failed
    i saw users that reviewed it saying you need to run
    sudo apt-get install python-glade2
    but i saw it after i tried to install
    now it says that the removal failed also


    i have "SMB/CIFS" installed it that ok?

    pyneighborhood saw the computers on the network
    but didn't able to go into the shared folders...
