How do I share files over network?

Google your problem first. Check the Wiki. Read the existing threads. It's okay to "hijack" an existing thread, yes! If your problem is not yet covered, open a new thread. To get the quickest possible help, mention the exact release codename in your post (uname -a is a good idea, too). Due to the lack of crystal balls, attach the output of lspci -nnk if you encounter hardware problems.

@wuxmedia,
thanks for the links.
it helps me look for more info..


so I found a new post here
http://forum.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.ph ... 63#p673163

since it seems to be very simple, just use template and make change to uuid, so I used it for both internal drive ( ntfs) and new USB 1TB drive ( also ntfs by default)

I do not want to change the USB drive because it is new and understand warranty.. also if there is something wrong withint one week, I can walk to the shop and just change it, usually shop technician will verify on the spot ..so keep it as original as possible.

I have a very simple time to just follow the instruction on the link and end results for my /etc/fstab is

cat /etc/fstab
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
#######/swapfile swap swap defaults 0 0
UUID="c50d0781-3764-40bd-b7bd-bc01cd8b80cf" / ext4 defaults,noatime 0 1
UUID=27233BFE3F41D3D9 /media/data ntfs defaults,nls=utf8,umask=000,uid=1000,windows_names 0 0
UUID=4E1AEA7B1AEA6007 /media/usb ntfs defaults,nls=utf8,umask=000,uid=1000,windows_names 0 0
tested, both internal drive and USB drive can automount after reboot.
Very nice.

The rest of the works are involved the same procedure thus no need to repeat.

I will test for a few more days, to see if this celeron computer will works well over several reboot and just do file sharings with internal drive and externa USB drive.
What I am interest also is to unplug USB drive, more elsewhere to do file copying. then plug back to this celeron box and see how it works.
