    Add the Placebar GUI Widget: "Connect to a remote computer or shared disk". The icon is an Earth globe.

    It adds a bookmark to caja Filemanager.
    I use it to connect to real Windows Shares, or Samba.

    I thought you were trying to connect a Windows to a Linux share.

    Windows was never 100% GUI. Sometime on it you have to use a console command.
    The Net command creating a local account!

    Then using GUI Software Manager I added grsync, a GUI to rsync.
    Once the bookmark in caja is clicked, then Grsync can be used to sync files with share. Much easier than rsync in the console.
    Remember the trailing / on the source or it creates an extra level.
