networking - Access Files on New Install of Ubuntu Server - Ask Ubuntu


i've installed ubuntu server on standalone server machine w/ 4 hd's (1 server install , 3 other windows hds). server machine plugged lan cable directly router. i'm trying access 3 other windows hds windows, ubuntu, , mac machines can't find out how access them.

try using samba, allows linux computer share files , printers windows computer. you'll need install samba package, , edit /etc/samba/smb.conf. there documentation here.

on ubuntu client, should able use nautilus find server , access file shares. windows client should have no trouble accessing server, of course. macs have no problems accessing windows file shares either.
