Bug ID: 407975
Summary: Ensure correct permissions when trying to create a
share of a folder in the user's homedir
Product: kdenetwork-filesharing
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: n...@kde.org
Reporter: n...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
In order to create Samba shares in the user's home directory, the whole home
folder needs to have execute permissions for "other" (see
https://wiki.manjaro.org/index.php?title=Using_Samba_in_your_File_Manager#Sharing_In_The_Home_Directory)
So when the user is trying to share a folder in their homedir, we should take
care of this automatically, or else it will just fail with no indication of
why.
In addition, we should display a warning that sharing a folder in your homedir
can potentially open you up to security issues.
