Can send files from PC1 to PC2 but not from PC2 to PC1

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Tried using 'give folder' and nothing shows up.
2. Also tried dropping files unto PC1's user and no notification there
shows up.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I see nothing, no response whatsoever from the target PC1, whereas it works
flawlessly when transfering files from PC1 to PC2.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
0.1.8 Ubuntu 9.10 32bit (both PC's)

Please provide any additional information below.
I have to say that when I saw the video on the site... I was so happy. I
remember using Ubuntu 7.10 setting up shared folders was so easy and after
8.04 and onwards, its a pain. The only reason I can think of, as a
different thing I've done in PC1 and not in PC2 is that I tried to install
Samba, but ended not using it since it never worked. On PC2 I didnt do the
install samba because I read somewhere that I could use Nautilus built-in
shared folder (public) but never got it to work, whereas on PC1 it does.

Hello:

After some more testing I find out that it looks like there's a file size limit 
on
what to send. As of this moment I havent gone as far as to determine what is the
threshold but I wanted to send a 7.7gig file to my HTPC and I wasnt able to do 
it.

So far, data that I have sent between both systems has not gone over 2gigs. 
Tried to
send simple folders and I was able to send it. Also a couple of folders 
together does
work.

Curiosly, as the 7.7gig notify never appears, sometimes if u send another 
smaller
file right afterwards it doesnt show that notify either. Today, though, it did. 
So
sometimes work and sometimes doesnt... not sure what else to do.

So, no defect, but it would be nice to know if there's a file size limit.
