Hi folks
Latest Canary and WSL allows OK to mount a Linux drive and access it from Windows via File explorer etc - but I can't seem to Network share it -- not sure if this is a Windows Networking problem (probably judging by myexperience with Windows Networking), or WSL. AFAIK any disk viewable via file explorer should be "shareable" .
The object of the exercise is to be able to share some drives without needing to install a full VM. I only want to share the drives - not really do much else so I don't need a whole slew of GUI apps on WSL.
Any ideas folks
Cheers
