Exclamation I Can't see my shared files from my windows network.


Obvious first..
I'm new to Ubuntu.
I am running Ubuntu.
I have in fact set the folder to shared.
I can see my computer or "server" on the windows network.
My router is all that ties my network together.
And I have a criminal history...okay that last one was a lie.
But really I'm stuck here I can't figure out how to let the windows network see my shared folder.

please help I want to play my game badly.(Had to rip from my dvd cuz it was skipping and ready to die.)

Thanks in advance!

Bumping a thread after 40 minutes is considered bad manners here, wait at least 24 hours.

Please specify your question. If I understand you correctly then you have an ISO image on your server (is that server running Linux or Windows?) and you want to have it on one of the clients in your network. How have you set up your share?
