I'm not completely sure in Kubuntu or on a server edition but in normal Ubuntu you'd just right-click on the folder and go down to "Properties" and click on the "Share" tab at the end. From there it's usually quite easy.

Good luck and regards from
Tom :)

That is what i did but nothing happened, the system asked me for the password to do it (i already introduce it) and nothing else happen.

Is there some other way to do it or do i am doing something wrong??

Thank you.

Yes.
Go to the Folder you want to share, open a Terminal :

python -m SimpleHTTPServer

Ready!, go to :

http://localhost:8000

other remote users can use it with :

http://(your-ip-here):8000
