Hi. I wanted to share files with my brother's computer (I am running ubuntu 7.04) but I couldn't get it to work.

I wish there was a setup assistant (or something) when you want to share a file/folder so that it just works.
It took me a whole lot of time scouring the forums to find out that I needed to set up a samba password/login in terminal.
Why can't samba use the same login/password as when I log into my computer? ...I had to set it up in terminal.
