I do as follow:

1. Install Samba

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install samba

Seems, samba is running

2.) Set a password for me (my user name is rev)

sudo smbpasswd -a rev

3.) I set myself as owner and also allow for now all permissions: Folder I want to share is filmy

4.) Edit the file "/etc/samba/smb.conf"

sudo nano /etc/samba/smb.conf

   6.) Ping from my W11 PC to Ubuntru server is OK

8.) Always got error message, windows not able to get access, network name unknown.
- Seems I do not have right to access folder according to Windows.

Please don't use external links for relatively tiny files. I have no idea where those lead and will not click on them.
When posting text here, please wrap that text in "code" tags, so the whitespace is retained. Often, for terminal/CLI commands, this will make it much more readable.

Please don't make it hard to help you.

Hello,

Originally, I posted all monitor screens here, but was over limit. So, I compressed all pictures but still over limit and in addition, was not readable in some cases.

All commands are in code tags from beginning.

Sorry if I I angry you in some way, but I did my best to describe and post thread as best as I could.

On the Windows machine try to connect to \\ip.addr.of.server, e.g., \\10.10.10.10. It may be a name resolution problem.

Hi,

thank you very much. That was it!

In all guides, I visited, there was written to always use whole path to shared folder.

Thank you one more time,
