Ok. Tried what you said from terminal and it did ask for my password. It then gave me root permission.However when I type the path: /etc/samba/smb.conf it tells me permission denied. Do I need to reinstall to hard drive since I picked the one that said for begginners. It is not a problem since the machine is 100% for linux? Also I just downloaded 3.8.2. If so what type of instal,l as sudo gave me if I remember 3 or for choices?

Thanks again.

p.s. machine seems to run ok otherwise I am using it to type this message.
