Question #172850 on samba in Ubuntu changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+question/172850

    Status: Needs information => Answered

delance proposed the following answer:
I'm not expert in Samba (CIFS).

If you know IP addresses of PC (should be something like 192.168.1.2), could you ping their address ?
E.g.     ping 192.168.1.2
Are Windows PC answering ?

Could you run command
   sudo apt-get install smb
to be sure Samba is installed

Do you have many Windows PC on same IP router, and are they able to see each other ?
Can you confirm that command   smbtree    returned nothing.
