  2. Open terminal in Ubuntu and make sure you have python installed in your PC.
  3. If not installed then install it by typing in terminal "sudo apt-get install python" without quotes.
  4. Goto the directory whose file you want to share by using cd(change directory) command.
  5. Type this command "python -m SimpleHTTPServer" without quotes.
  6. Open new terminal and type ifconfig and find your IP address.
