Finally got my mx21 install with the Thunar share plugin working consistently for me. The first couple mx21 install attempts I tried to install the plugin and the share options were grayed out and red text said I may not have samba installed. So, I installed samba client then got it working, but after reboot the red text would show up again and the share tab no longer worked. This time installing mx21 I installed samba client first and then installed Thunar share plugin and all was good after reboot. Don't know if the order really matters, it could be something else I did wrong.
I haven't been able to access my Windows shares yet. The "Browse Network" icon in Thunar shows two icons in the window, one is the local machine and the other says "Windows Netwrk". Clicking on the Windows Network icon causes Thunar to display a pop up error window sometimes that says the window is not responding and asks if I want to close Thunar. This has probably been reported already but thought I would mention it if it helps any.
In Thunar I also tried typing smb://hostname/share in the path field and got this window, but the credentials were not accepted and just show the window again.

Is there another way to connect to Windows samba shares?
Thanks

I don't know what the problem is here but what is difficult about bringing 3 or more computers into a network and sharing folders !! it's about the same if you named 3 computers server 1 = the landing server , which takes care of servers 2 and 3 to make the different local ip addresses visible on the internet. if you understand what i mean .
if you have 3 computers in a network, all three computers must have the same network name , and give your computers easy names .
On every computer you can even share entire hard drives, including USB drives, you can do this with passwords or without passwords.
Samba must be active on every computer and every computer on the network must be visible on computer 1, 2 or 3 , if this is not the case it will not work.
Suppose you have a 4 terabite hard drive and you want to share all of this USB drive with all your computers and even under a media server that contains both music and video, then you can play this on all 3 of your computers and even on all TV in your home and you can go even further if a media server like places is connected and installed on all your computers they will also see each other and you can even access all your other computers with 1 computer even from a distance , matter of knowledge in those things .
simple example if computer 1 , 2 and 3 have this on board
https://www.plex.tv/nl/media-server-downloads/ than if you have some multi blueray player , that box wil see all your computers , and all your shares from the networks , even al your computers can share all the mediaplayers everywhere , networks share like maps wil be on every computer , that is childplay really
every digital blueray player can handle mediaplayers like pleks , so if this is on all your computers you can play it on tv twoo , even maps you share between computers wil be vissible on tv , i even stream movies with subs between my computers all over the networks to my tv at home , very easy and fast.
