Change retroshare name5/10/2023 ![]() Regarding getting your SMB sharing connection from linux working. ![]() ![]() I still should be able to use SMB if my OS provides it natively! There might be tools out there that work better than SMB, doesn't matter. Mac gives SMB as a part of the OS and thats what I want to use. S.: I am NOT interested in installing any third-party tool for this job. It then asked for user name, domain, and password and I entered guest for all three, as advised by And this gave the following error: Then I tried the following address on my Ubuntu's Nautilus: Then I activated file sharing on my Mac and designated my Public folder as the share point (default). Is there any simpler method?įirst of all I enabled guest sharing on my Mac: Is it possible to share files with a Linux user using SMB or AFP? I understand FTP is an option but connecting using FTP involves a lot of Terminal steps each time, i.e., activating FTP, sharing password with the user, connecting, and then closing FTP. Any suggestions around how? I have tried checking the file sharing option in the Preferences > Sharing module but it didn't help. While I do know that Airdrop works only for Apple devices, I am sure there must be some way to share files with non-Apple devices using the built-in WiFi capabilities. Both the laptops are Wi-Fi enabled and I also understand that Mac does allow file sharing over Wi-Fi. I am using a MacBook running Mavericks and my brother is on a Linux box and we often need to exchange files between each other.
