I installed v10 on an older system to run as a file server. I don't know how to set up the shares for other systems that run Linux and windows to have access over the network. I have tried various settings and I think I have it all set back to original as it was installed.

Some systems could see the share but have no access others could not see the share.

I am completely burned out in understanding how to set this up.

Would someone mind giving me a step by step hold my old hand and walk me through this please.

My idea is to have one share or folder that can be accessed over my home network and that folder everyone can add, delete any file or create folders that everyone has access to.

All the systems connect via a router. Systems are Win XP, Ubuntu and Mint.

Thanks everyone.
