Xubuntu: How to Share Files
Having difficulty getting file sharing set up in Xubuntu? Stop banging your head against a wall: all you need is an SFTP client! PS: this should work for Zorin OS as well.
I was never able to get file-sharing to work on Xubuntu. I recall fooling around with Samba back when I first installed the OS, but it never really resulted in much. Today I was installing Zorin OS (another XFCE flavor of Ubuntu) on an older work computer and I stumbled across the exact same file-sharing predicament: there appears to be no working graphical method to setup network Samba shares.
