Launchpad Entry: easy-file-sharing
Packages affected: ?
Summary
Make file sharing between ubuntu boxes in a lan/wlan easy.
Release Note
TBD
Rationale
To share a directory in ubuntu it is currently required to install either nfs or samba (neither is available in the default install) and to have super user rights.
Use Cases
- Alice wants to share the fotos on her laptop with some friends.
Design
Check the various options:
- samba/nfs as it is currently used via shares-admin
gnome-user-share (http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/gnome-user-share) - requires apache2
giver (http://code.google.com/p/giver/) - c# based
gshare (http://yimports.com/~cpinto/projects/gnome/gshare) mono + ftp + avahi. in universe. claims to allow sharing to macs, and windows with bonjour installed (or anyone happy to type in ftp://ip:port)
Test/Demo Plan
TBD
