Samba (SMB) is pretty easy to install. Just set it up to share your home folder. Plenty of online tutorials
The sneaky bit is by default Windows disables access and you have to change a policy to enable it.
I like to map a share to my Linuxcnc home folder on a windows box so you can save gcode straight to the ~/linuxcnc/gcode folder from Fusion360 and Sheetcam.

@rodw, I haven't checked recently, but the iso had an old qtpyvcp source listed that causes some issues and requires removed to resolve. We updated the instructions to use the lockdown deb on the forum page as it doesn't have the outdated source.

If we are not told or an issue raised, it won't have changed.
You can send your pull request with changes to the qtpyvcp files in this folder in the installer

I am using Octopus Pro board with remora-spi. Can you help me with working TMC5160 (stepsticks) drivers. Previously I used TMC5160 with tinybee board flashed with FluidNC in daisy chain config, they were working fine.

Gui related pins (ie gmoccapy and pyvcp related pins) do not exist until the gui has loaded. So you need to put those hal connections into the postgui halfile.

Ah cool thanks.
my screen res is 1680x1050 right now (old cinema display) and my panel screen is 2k, 4:3. I'd rather not buy a new screen for any of this.

I'm installing linuxcnc 2.9.4 now.

I got mine set up using axis and then moved to TTS repeatable tooling and  went to QT Dragon because I could not get probe basic working on my hardware. Then I found none of the QTdragon screens worked for my 16" monitor so upgraded to a 16"  1080p monitor. It has probing and ATC. The manual tool change works well.
Don't Google, Its all well documented in the Linuxcnc docs.

There was nothing wrong with my THCAD-300, I just switched to a divided voltage source from the new plasma cutter instead of the raw voltage from the older plasma source. By changing the input voltage for the THCAD I would get better resolution with my divided voltage source signal.

If you are ramping the spindle speed you cannot use the PWM enable in the same way.
The PWM enable and 7I78 enable pin need to be driven by something like machine-on
in this case.
