    it's much cooler to have your own server

    Don't waste your time with Network Locations in File Explorer the Domain Name Resolution function is terrible. God forbid you want Windows DNS to recognize a Linux server on the network.

     

    Go to the navigation bar and just use the IP of the opposing computer. Type "\\" (no quotes) then the IP (Ex. \\192.168.0.8)

     

    You'll still have to login but then you'll have access to any shared drives on the computer.

     

    It's easier IMO unless that has nothing to do with why it's annoying for you.
