Hi Folks,

Actually I have a Ubuntu desktop & I have installed wine. I want to access a network share using this option:

First method:
Start run terminal ctrl+F2 then typing //192.168.58.56
but Its show error Could not open location 'file:////192.168.58.56

Second method:
But when I access smb://192.168.58.56 . I am able to access it.

But I wants to access it First method. How it will be possible.
