Downloads - Uploads - Samba shared folder

- Any files placed in this directory will become owned by user spot. This is the same user that runs the web browser.

- This is the the directory where your downloads should go when using the web browser.

- You should place uploads in this directory. Since the web browser runs as user spot, the files that you upload may need to be owned by spot.

- This directory is publicly shared if you start the Samba file sharing server. Samba lets you share files with other computers including Windows and Macintosh. To start sharing files from this computer, go to Control Panel, click on the system tab, and then Manage Servers and Services. Click on Samba and then click Start to run the service. Click enable if want the Samba server to run at each boot. To look for other computers on your network sharing files, click on the sharing folder on the desktop.

- If you store thousands of files in this folder, autochown (The daemon that changes all the files to owner spot) may start using measurable cpu resources. So don't do that. You can also turn off autochown by going to the Control Panel, System tab, and then Mange Servers and Services.
