This article provides instructions on how to mount Windows shares on Ubuntu. Use the Common Internet File System (CIFS), a network file-sharing protocol, if you wish to mount Windows 11 shares or Windows shares on Ubuntu or any other Linux-based operating system.

How To Mount Windows 11 Shares On Ubuntu 24.04 LTS

We need to configure a few settings and protocols so that Ubuntu can mount Windows 11 shares.

How To Enable Network Discovery in Windows 11

First, we confirm that Windows 11’s network discovery is turned on. On a private network, you cannot see Windows devices if your network discovery is disabled.

You can easily enable Network Discovery in Windows 11 with the following steps.

  • Use the Windows key + I shortcut for System Settings, you can go to system settings via Start ==> Settings, Or you can use the search box on the taskbar and search for Settings.
  • In Windows Settings Panel, You can see the Network & Internet option on the right side of the pane. You need to click Network & Internet, then select Ethernet on the right pane of your Windows Settings Panel.
  • After clicking on the Ethernet setting, You will have two network profile types.  You need to select the Private network profile. This profile will allow devices in your network to be discovered.

Now you need to turn on Public Folder Sharing in Windows 11.

How To Turn on Public Folder Sharing in Windows 11

In Windows 11, you must first navigate to the Cpanel before choosing Network and Internet. You will notice the Network and Sharing Center option in the right pane after selecting the Network and Internet option. Change advanced sharing settings is located on the left side of the pane in the Network and Sharing Center window. To alter the advance sharing settings, click on it. A list of options will appear; from there, choose Private (current profile) and Turn on file and printer sharing. Save your edits, then close the window.

At this point, Windows ought to activate printer and file sharing on private networks automatically, and you ought to be able to see the Public folder sharing settings. The file sharing feature might be disabled if you are still unable to view shared files or printers.

You can also easily enable the file and print sharing by running following command:

netsh advfirewall firewall set rule group="File and Printer Sharing" new enable=Yes
netsh advfirewall firewall set rule group="Network Discovery" new enable=Yes

Now, you need to have Folders on Windows that you want to share.

How To Create Windows Shares For Linux

To share a folder, you  need to have a folder in Windows. You must make one folder for sharing if you don’t already have one. Right now, sharing the folder is crucial. Use the Start button to navigate to the computer management option.  The Shared Folders option is located in the left pane of the Computer Management panel. Expand the Shared Folders folder, then right-click on Shares and choose New Share. You must choose the folder you created in the previous step or that you wish to share. You can also set the shared folder permissions using this setting wizard.  After creating and configuring the Windows shares, You need to configure Ubuntu or Linux from where you are going to access the Windows share.

Mount Windows shares on Ubuntu Linux

Now, you need to install the CIFS utility package on Ubuntu by running the following commands to install CIFS on Ubuntu.

sudo apt update
sudo apt install cifs-utils

Run the following command to mount a  Windows share to the /mnt/Windows_Share_created directory on Ubuntu Linux.

sudo mount -t <strongcifs -o username=<Windows_User_Name> //Windows_PC_IP/<ShareName> /mnt/Windows_Share_created

It might ask for your Windows account password. If you want to include the password along with the command:

sudo mount -t cifs -o username=<Windows_User_Name>,password=<Windows_Password> //Windows_PC_IP/<ShareName> /mnt/Windows_Share_created

If you don’t want to always type the mount commands to mount Windows shares, you can go through the following steps to automatically mount the shares.

Run the commands:

sudo nano /etc/fstab

Then enter the following commands at the bottom of the file and save.

//Windows_PC_IP/ShareName  /mnt/Widows_Share_created  cifs  credentials=/etc/credentials,file_mode=0755,dir_mode=0755 0   0

Now It will automatically mount the shares.

Run the commands below to unmount the share.

To install Auto-GPT, you first need to install the latest Python3 and Git packages on your computer.

Python is extensively used in Auto-GPT. To install the latest version of Python on Ubuntu, open up a terminal and upgrade and update the packages using:

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

Now, add the deadsnakes PPA with the following command:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:deadsnakes/ppa

Install the latest version of Python with:

sudo apt install python3.11

Replace “python3.11” in the above command with the latest Python version at the time.

After installation, check if pip is already installed on your machine:

pip --version

If you’re using Python 3.4 or above, pip should already be installed. But in case it’s missing, install pip with:

sudo apt install python3-pip

Now that you’ve installed the latest Python version and pip on Ubuntu, install Git and clone the Auto-GPT repository using git clone:

sudo apt install git
sudo git clone https://github.com/Significant-Gravitas/Auto-GPT.git

Change the directory to the newly created Auto-GPT code folder using the cd command:

cd Auto-GPT

Configure Auto-GPT on Ubuntu

You must put up your OpenAI API key as an environment variable after properly configuring the Auto-GPT environment.  Go to platform.openai.com and create an account to obtain an OpenAI API key. To utilize OpenAI’s GPT product, make sure your payment method is configured.  Once you’ve logged in, choose View API Keys by clicking on your profile picture in the upper right corner.

Press Ctrl + C or click the copy icon to copy the API key after selecting the Generate new secret key button and giving it any name. This key serves as your AI assistant’s login information for OpenAI’s GPT technology.  After copying, insert the key into the .env file. The env file will store all the API keys that you use with Auto-GPT. If you don’t need a backend vector database like Pinecone, your OpenAI API key should be enough to use Auto-GPT.

Open the .env file using nano to set your API key:

nano .env.template

To locate the OpenAI API key variable.

Hold CTRL + W, search for “OPEN_API_KEY=”, and then hit Enter.
