How to use in Dolphin

[havana97]

I just installed v10.04_x86_64 using a brand new clean HDD (kubuntu only) and I can't connect to any computer on my home network.

1. I'm trying to use Dolphin's network features and can't use it. Please help.

2. I also tried to make a shared folder using my documents folder and I can't do this either. Please help.
a. I right clicked "documents folder"
b. selected "Share Tab"
c. It states the following "you need to be authorized to share folders" with a "Configure File Sharing" button below it.
d. all attempts to use the "Configure File Sharing" options fail.

I can add the following...

1. I have the following machines on the home network
a. kubuntu 9.04 - wired
b. kbuntu 10.04 - wired
c. winxp home ed - wireless

2. I can ping all PCs from any PC. Pinging is successful from any station to any other station.

3. Using kubuntu 9.04, I can see and transfer files to and from winxp using the command line only. Graphical access using dolphin fails.
Ex: kub> smbclient //mywinxp_computername/my_shared_foldername <enter>
smb:> dir <enter> (displays winxp files.)

4. I have the following file contents on both of the PCs 9.04 and 10.04 ...
HOSTS.ALLOW -> (modified)
ALL: 127.0.0.1 :allow
ALL: 192.168.0. :allow
SSHD: 192.168.0. :allow

HOSTS.DENY -> (modified)
ALL: ALL EXCEPT localhostENY

HOSTS -> (default install)

5. I don't have any firewalls active that I know of.
winxp -> firewall off
wireless router firewall off
Does 10.04 and 9.04 use firewalls by default?

6. Using kubuntu 9.04, when I right click on a folder; select "Properties" and select "Share Tab"
An option appears - "Share this folder in the local network", which does not appear on my 10.04 PC.
And if I select this option, then other options become active; such as ...
"Share with NFS" | NFS Options | Share with Samba | Samba Options

Again, these do not appear in v10.04 - why?

7. using the same commands on 10.04 ( smbclient //winxp_computername/my_shared_foldername -> fails. It just hangs. No error messages are displayed.
