Thread: How to observe Ubuntu 9.10 desktop on Windows Domain

I would like to be capable to distribute files from my Ubuntu 9.10 system to users on a windows domain. I am capable to view as well as access the windows systems from Places>Network but am not competent to see my own computer there also from the windows machines in my network places i am not capable to view my Ubuntu machine. When i allow the firewall i cannot access any of the Windows machines even after i have enabled port 137,138,139,445 throughout the ufw firewall. This was not a problem with Ubuntu 9.04.

Sorry if it's too understandable, but have you really installed samba, not just the samba-client? I imagine that only the client is installed by default, which would most likely make you undetectable on the win-net... Hope this helps you out.
