I have had a frustrating day trying to get SMB working so I can share my newly added drive. Most of the instructions I have found say "right click on the drive/directory and select sharing", that option isn't available in any of the file managers I have.
I followed though some very clear instructions I found, I think to the letter, but I still can't see the share from this Ubuntu laptop.
I will have another go tomorrow but is there any simple diagnostic I can run that will show whether I have set up samba properly?

I also tried to set up VNC for screen sharing, but that will have to wait as well :-(
