[Bug 254328] Re: dont have permission to create share
wow, i got a response already?! im very impressed! also, no, i did not restart my session, and i was never told anywhere that i had to to get it working. therefore, i still think something can be changed here. i think that after installing samba, it should either give u that u need 2 restart ur pc 4 the changes 2 take effect system tray notification, or it should tell you after installing it that you need to restart your session or start the daemon manually for it to start working however, even better than all of those, how about once its done installing, it just starts the samba service and stuff on its own? this makes the most sense and seems kinda obvious now. anyway, i recommend that after u finish installing it, it fires it up right away so that way people like me dont get confused and start putting a bunch of frowny faces in launchpad :( i really hope u consider it, and make the changes and stuff, or just disregard me and post an excuse in the comments :) chao -- dont have permission to create share https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/254328 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 254328] [NEW] dont have permission to create share
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: nautilus i am using ubuntu 8.04.1 with all of the latest updates applied as of this post. i used apport so some stuff is attached steps to repeat: in nautilus, right click on a folder and select Sharing Options check the box Share this folder click Create Share note: if you didnt install the packages u need 2 share folders and stuff, u should obviously anyway when i do that i get this error. i attached a screenshot, mmkay? anyway, i consider this bug to be pretty significant, because file sharing over a local network can be extremely important, especially to schools and other businesses and whatever, and i thought that this is the targeted audience for LTS releases. not only that, but this bug did not exist in the last release, 7.10, which means that its a regression. geez, i thought LTS releases were supposed to be exeptionally stable. actually, this release brought the most regressions i have ever seen in ubuntu's history. dont get me wrong, i love ubuntu, and i use it all the time, which is why i dont like finding so many bugs in it. i hope this gets fixed :) ProblemType: Bug Architecture: i386 Date: Sat Aug 2 19:04:55 2008 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 8.04 ExecutablePath: /usr/bin/nautilus NonfreeKernelModules: ath_hal nvidia Package: nautilus 1:2.22.3-0ubuntu2 PackageArchitecture: i386 ProcEnviron: PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: nautilus Uname: Linux 2.6.24-19-generic i686 ** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: apport-bug -- dont have permission to create share https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/254328 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
