This has been implicitly fixed, because the patch that caused the bug has been dropped in favor of policy-kit support. ** Changed in: gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged = Fix Released -- [shares-admin] Can't share files on Windows partition https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/115937 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

not likely to be changed for gutsy now and not an important issue since those can be shared from nautilus ** Changed in: gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium = Low Target: ubuntu-7.10-rc = None -- [shares-admin] Can't share files on Windows partition https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/115937 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

No, those files inside windows (fat or ntfs) cannot be shared using nautilus, at least to me it throws an error message and doesn't share them, and this didn't happen in Feisty -- [shares-admin] Can't share files on Windows partition https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/115937 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have this problem in Gutsy Beta, and if I try to share a folder using nautilus, doing: right click on the folder - compartir carpeta (my gutsy is in spanish, in english it would be share folder) and it gives me an error dialog that says: error accessing 'file:///media/hda2/mp3': Acceso denegado -- [shares-admin] Can't share files on Windows partition https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/115937 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 115937] Re: [shares-admin] Can't share files on Windows partition
This does not look like an upstream bug. The error is the result of a permission denied problem, that is caused by debian/patches/22_root_only.dpatch. This patch temporarilly sets the real AND effective user id to the sudo user id in src/shares/shares-tools.c in function gst_shares_tool_init() while configuring the tool. After configuration it tries to set both id`s back to 0 but according to the man page of setreuid this call has to fail: Linux: Unprivileged users may only set the real user ID to the real user ID or the effective user ID. The failed call leaves the shares-admin process with real and effective uid of the user while the corresponding gid`s are still set to root. Those privileges do not fit to the default uid and gid of FAT volumes (root:plugdev). The problem is therefore not related to FAT volumes but to any directory that does not belong to the user or to group root an is not world readable. Changing only the real user id did not work (even though the contents of the folder were visible): (shares-admin:29384): GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager: Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed. So we need to find a proper way of connecting to the right session bus, without permanently dropping privileges. -- [shares-admin] Can't share files on Windows partition https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/115937 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 115937] Re: [shares-admin] Can't share files on Windows partition
Forgot to say: An easy workaround (at least for FAT volumes) would be to add the root user to the group plugdev. -- [shares-admin] Can't share files on Windows partition https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/115937 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
