Bug Description
gufw by default does not allow Nautilus to see Windows shares (seen on a home network, Windows is a non-domain Win7 machine). This is widely reported, see https:/
Importance: many people probably disable the firewall altogether because Windows access is important to them, and the configuration is difficult.
Workaround:
- Download application profiles from http://
sudo ufw enable
sudo ufw allow samba
sudo ufw allow from any app Samba
Thanks!

Hi, I'm not sure about the risk of this:
sudo ufw allow from any app Samba
Any help please? :)
Thanks Yaron :)
