Hello friends,

Can anyone tell me how to setup an personal/commercial ftp server with gproftpd gui app provided with ubuntu. Is static IP compulsory for setting of a personal/commercial ftp server?

And please also help me in sharing folders with the following structure:

UBUNTU (MAIN SYSTEM) ----> SAMBA SHARES ----> XP MACHINE (CLIENT)

I want to share a folder in ubuntu machine with xp machine. My xp machine requires a password when i try to open the folder. Root/administrator access is allowed but guest access is not allowed to login.

Please help me providing a quick solution to access guest account with 'Read Only' privileges.

Thanks in advance.

Regards.
