Yes, Samba is configured as far as Ubuntu lets me configure it.
It works, as when I type on a Windows machine "Run (open) 10.0.0.175" I see
a log-in window and after giving the correct password I am in the shared
directory of the Linux PC and can access the files there. Note that
10.0.0.175 is the IP address of the Linux PC.
