Hi All,

I was toying around with the 'Personal File Sharing' option (on Fedora
7) and am running into some issues. The following is my setup

- ------------
| Wireless |      /------------ Laptop 1
|          | ----<
| Routed   |      \------------ Laptop 2
- ------------


1. On Laptop1, I go to "Personal File Sharing" and enable the sharing
(with no password) option.
2. On Laptop2, I go to Places->Network.
3. I am able to see the shared folder (of laptop1)
4. I click on this shared folder to access it, but nothing happens!

Am I missing something here, or is this how it is supposed to work?
(Both the systems have the latest updates as of yesterday)

Any pointers on where to look for errors appreciated.

thanks,
Rogue
