No access to LAN through Thunar

I am connected to a LAN with a Windows 10 machine with sharing enabled and another computer with Porteus 5.0rc1 running on it. When I open Thunar and click on "Browse Network", "Windows Network" appears in the righthand pane, but double-clicking that brings up a blank pane; I can ping the other machines.

Code: Select all

su
toor
chmod +x /etc/rc.d/rc.samba && /etc/rc.d/rc.samba start
If you don't see your PC in Network, try smb://ip-of-your-pc/ in Thunar

Thanks -- I forget to remove one of the slashes; is some useful purpose served by displaying three after "smb:"?
