Well I installed Linuxcnc 2.7.4 Wheezy with no problems. CNC runs great.
I can browse my office windows network but how do I share a dir between wheezy machines.
Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid has a Share tab in Nautilus but Wheezy is using Thunar.
I have searched all over the net. I know I could use NFS or samba but can't gvfs do it?
The more I search the more confused I get.

Unfortunately Debian thinks making most daily tasks like sharing as difficult as possible for a new user and that is why I use LinuxMint with the Mate desktop. Having said that you can us Ubuntu 10.04 with LinuxCNC 2.7.4 and I have two machines still running Ubuntu with the latest LinuxCNC. Sorry I'm not solving your problem but ranting about how bad Debian is lol.
Some links that "should" work to enable sharing.

Thanks,
Well I gave up on the gvfs stuff and just went with samba.
here is what I did:
# To share a folder on network from Debian wheezy:
# assuming you have a working network connection
# In a terminal type:
sudo mousepad /etc/samba/smb.conf
#add something like this at the end of the smb.conf file
# (replace 'joe' with your username and 'mydir' with a folder in your home dir)
[mydir]
path = /home/joe/mydir
valid users = joe guest
read only = no
create mask = 666
directory mask = 777
force user = joe
force group = joe
browseable = yes
# save and exit mousepad. then type:
sudo apt-get install samba
sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
It made mydir available to other linux machines and windows.
I hope this will help someone else.
