Also, on the Windows machine (”Machine B”), create a folder (aka directory) to share:
C:\shthis
and enable sharing for it - and be sure that user “joeA” has full permission for access to that folder.
So, you would be trying to connect from the Linux box (”Machine A”) to:
smb://192.168.50.183/shthis
Or try to mount that share in the display for your Linux box.
smb://192.168.50.183/Downloads
and I get this:
No such file or directory
Yet my other Windows machines see it fine.
