I have a problem: My school have a network drive, called I:\, which i can connect to from Windows 8, but i cant do it from Ubuntu :( I am a complete Linux noob, so its probably just because i dont know how to, but i write the info i need to connect from windows, so i hope you will help me :)

Share (At least i think so): \vihcafil11.global.local\elevhome$\ums\htx\*username*
Username: Global\*username*
Password: *password*

If you know how to do it, please help me ^^

It's very simple. You have to just open Network in nautilus file Manager. You will get folder named Windows Network. You will find your shared drive vihcafil11 there.

Or Open file manager, Press Ctrl+L Type

smb://<hostname or ip of shared machine on network>

For example

smb://ketan or smb://192.168.1.5

  1. Open home folder and press Ctrl + L

  2. Then type smb://vihcafil11.global.local/elevhome$/ums/htx/ address bar. If you know the file server ip address, you may type the ip address too.

  3. Type Your username and password on the pop-up box

  • Please open your folder (or nautilus)
  • In the menu select "File->Connect to Server..."
  • In the appearing dialog choose type "Windows share"
  • Fill-in: Server, Share-name, Domain, User and Password
  • Click "Connect"

Maybe you have to use the old style Windows domain name.

  • When i push the "Connect to server, a windows just appears where i can enter a smb:// path, no "Windows share", any idea? I have the newest ubuntu, 13.04 i think :) – Jonas Strand Aug 28 '13 at 07:28
  • Ok, things are changing. I'm using Ubuntu 12.10. – tpf Aug 28 '13 at 14:20
  • But if you enter smb://yourserver.yourdomain.com in the window you should be able to get the User/Domain/Password window. See also [link](http://www.liberiangeek.net/2013/04/how-to-access-windows-network-shares-in-ubuntu-13-04-raring-ringtail/) – tpf Aug 28 '13 at 14:22
