How to connect linux ambient to a windows pc on chrome OS ?
by bashsmore from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6JXAM)
Hi everyone,
I have a chromebook with the developer mode activated so I'm allowed to use the ubuntu terminal.
The chromebook OS has its own SAMBA that allows you to connect the chromebook to shared files by any pc - in lan- by putting the ip address and the account creds. I was wondering if it's possible to create a shortcut of a folder shared on lan by a windows pc in the linux ambient. what I need to do, to be short, is to have access by a windows app, launched via WINE on ubuntu terminal, to a specific folder shared by a windows pc (oviously everything under the same internet connection). There is the WINE folder in the linux "ambient" so I think the goal is to create a shortcut in that folder, so the windows app can browse through the shared files... I hope it's well explained and I know it's a little strange, but it's for work and could be a very good time-saver. thank you in advance for any answer!
