Cannot see or access another computers on networking using ubuntu 14.04 LTS
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
I just installed Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. I am totally new to Ubuntu.
I have another computer with Windows 7 installed.
Both computers are connected via router using wifi.
But still I cannot see or access another system in Browse Network. What can be the issue here?
I tried alot of things :
e.g modify and updating samba with following command:
$ sudo apt-get install samba
$ gksu gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf
I tried changing:
From browseable = no to browseable = yes
Also tried:
$ gedit /etc/nsswitch.conf
Changed:
From
hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns
To
hosts: files wins dns
Nothing works at all. Can anyone guide me whats wrong here.

If you want to just access the files from other Windows PCs, you can use this
And
For other Linux PCs, you can install ssh server on them and access them by
$ssh username@ip-address
For remote desktop connection, VNC is a nice cross-platform approach.
