Ok I am not sure then,   if you right click on a folder in Kubuntu can
you see an option for share,  it may be worth seeing what is already
set up.

Failing that is this designed to connect all the time to the server or
are you just sharing the odd file with each device,  may be worth
looking at services such as dropbox for that.

Either that set up the server as a NAS box (or add those services) and
add a wireless card.  so the mobile devices can connect.

If anyone can help further it would be helpful I am a little out of my
depth here.
