Homenetwork between pc and wireless tablett

Hello,
I would make a home network between my pc and an Archos 70b e-reader.
I work with FC17 and Gnome 3.4.2 with Fallback.
First of all I have installed samba and tried to see the network devices:

Code:

 [gastonv@gastonv ~]$ yum list installed | grep samba
samba.i686                          2:3.6.9-96.fc17.1            @updates       
samba-client.i686                   2:3.6.9-96.fc17.1            @updates       
samba-common.i686                   2:3.6.9-96.fc17.1            @updates       
system-config-samba.noarch          1.2.99-1.fc17                @updates
     [gastonv@gastonv ~]$ ifconfig -a

 [gastonv@gastonv ~]$ ping 192.168.0.157

192.168.0.163 is my computer with a cable connected.
192.168.0.157 is my tablet wireless WiFi connected.
Both are connected to the same modem.
Then I tried something (translated to Dutch):

Code:

Samba server configuration
1. Files:
Map: /home/gastonv
Name of source: gastonv
Rights: only read
Visible
2. Preferences - Server setup:
Basis: 
Workgroup: mygroup
Description: Samba Server Version %v
Security:
Authentification mode: Shared source
Passwords locked: No
Gast account: No gast account
3. Preferences - Samba users:
gastonv

On my tablet with an App Network Discovery, I see my computer 192.168.0.163 and also
22/tcp (ssh) connect.
In App Files I have to see Network, but I do not see or find it.

Then I tried on my computer:
Locations > Network > Windows-network
Then I receive a message:

Code:

Cannot couple the location
Could not ask for a list of shared maps.

I think I have done something wrong.
please, have I to set a port, and if yes, where can I do it?
Many thanks in advance for helping.
Gaston Verhulst.
