I am wondering how to eliminate the need for a password when sharing files between computers. I have tried changing the filesharing in properties. I am using ubuntu 14.04.

Here is one method. Another would be to use the 'connect to server' button after setting up passwordless SSH. Note that this will work if both computers are running a Linux flavor, but not between Windows and Ubuntu.

**Step 1:**Setup a passwordless SSH connection between the two computers: How can I set up password-less SSH login?

**Step 2:**Then mount the shared folder from the remote computer: Mount remote directory using SSH
