Public bug reported:
Right-click a folder in nautilus -> Share folder. The tool that pops up
is seriously flawed. Trying to use it during only one minut I discovered
three bugs...
- When I deleted the share name and wrote something else in there, it marked
the input box red and showed a message on the bottom saying the name couldn't
be empty. Because I deleted the name first? ...
- When the tool popped up it asked me if I wanted to install the necessary
utilities to use the tool. I pressed install, but even though it failed (I have
no internet connection at the time) it unlocked all of the window's
functionality, which would probably lead to several new bugs seeing how
undeveloped this program is...
- When I had installed the necessary utilities I couldn't create the share
anyway. It displayed the following message on the bottom of the window:
""net usershare" returnerade fel 255: net usershare: cannot open usershare
directory /var/lib/samba/usershares. Error Åtkomst nekas
You do not have permission to create a usershare. Ask your administrator to
grant you permissions to create a share." Åtkomst nekas = Access denied. I
tried to share a folder in my /home folder, so this was kind of unexpected...
