Although Linux in general, and Ubuntu in particular, is increasingly making inroads into the desktop market, its origins are very much server based. It is not surprising therefore that Linux has the ability to act as a file server. It is also extremely common for Linux and Windows systems to co-exist both in home and enterprise environments. It is a common requirement therefore that files on an Ubuntu system be accessible to Linux, UNIX and Windows based systems over network connections. Similarly, shared folders residing on Windows systems must also be accessible from Ubuntu systems.
