Hi All
I used to have a small network if you call it that
I have a D-Link Wireless ADSL 2+ Router
Wired Connection to my Ubuntu box 9.04 Desktop
Wireless Connection to Vista Laptop
I downgraded laptop to XP
I upgraded Ubuntu to 10.04LTS
Now I can't connect the computers
what I wish to do is be able to swoop files from laptop to desktop well
really be able to have the files on the ubuntu system and work on them
from the laptop witch is what I was doing before
Am I better off downgrading 10.04 back to 9.04
Both Computer are accessing internet just fine
Thanks for anyhelp
Chris

what I was doing before and worked well was I use a file that I wish to /
like to access from both computers in the /home folder on the linux
computer that way the file is always up to-date
That is not to say I'm going to look at and find more out about your
idea's
