Here we set up a linux-lite based samba server for access from windows and an antix connectshares clients. Part II highlights access to the shares from antix 13 using connectshares. Part I shows off the linuxlite samba server and access to the shares from windows 7.
Part I can be found here: • AntiX 13 - connectshares and LinuxLit...
