Hello World! Today I am Going Share with you, How to Share File From Ubuntu to Android Using Wifi.

Okey Lets Start!

What we needed? An android Phone and Ubuntu Laptop and both are connected to same Network. Nothing other.

Installation on Ubuntu: at First we need to install Samba on Our Laptop.

Open Terminal (ctrl+alt+t) then type

sudo apt-get install samba

after installing Samba we need to Configure it. Okey now we configure it.

Open Terminal (ctrl+alt+t) then type

sudo gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf

then type your system Password then Hit Enter, after opening editor window just add this line on Your config file.

    comment = Ubuntu File Server Share
    path = /srv/samba/share
    browsable = yes
    guest ok = yes
    read only = no
    create mask = 0755

After adding This try To Change Something like This

   workgroup = EXAMPLE

   security = user

After This. We need to Create a Shared Folder, Share it To public

open Terminal (ctrl+alt+t) then type

sudo mkdir /srv/samba/share
