Re: [Question #250789]: MS office files alone do not open from network in Samba share/kubuntu 14.04 LTS system

 

Question #250789 on samba in Ubuntu changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+question/250789

    Status: Open => Solved

S.S.Mani confirmed that the question is solved:
 posted a few questions here and I got many sincere answers. Thanks for
everyone.

However i was not able to solve my problem of accessing other network
computers from mu Kubuntu and also my kubuntu was not showing in other
computers.

I have now successfully uninstalled Kubuntu using OS uninstaller. I
propose to reinstall directly 14.04 LTS unlike my earlier method of
12.04 and updating it, and hope to succeed.

However i want to record one peculiar(my observation) thing that
happened during the last attempt.

While i was trying to uninstal, for once I "Tried Kubuntu".

During that time I was able to access all network computers!

However after uninstalling and reinstalling the same version of kubuntu
in the same computer in the same network, I got into the same network
issues as earlier! I wonder why?

The only difference, to my knowledge in my installation was, during
installtion i had allowed the third paty installations as well as
updates to be installed? Could that be the reason for this behaviour?

As I propose to START AFRESH, I AM CLOSING THIS, AS PROBLEM SOLVED! HOPE
THAT IS ACCEPTABLE.

THANKS ONCE AGAIN
