[Bug 1261873] Re: 'net usershare' returned error 255
In the #=== Share Definitions === section of smb.conf exists the original [homes] share from Debian which looks like this but is scattered throughout the section: [homes] comment = Home Directories browseable = no read only = yes create mask = 0700 directory mask = 0700 valid users = %S Ubuntu usually comments out this share but in this case it was incomplete. Only [homes], comment = Home Directories, and browseable = no were commented out. This leaves read only = yes, create mask = 0700, directory mask = 0700 and valid users = %S intact and interpreted by samba as global parameters which makes a mess of things. In this particular bug report having valid users = %S interpreted as a global parameter induces the originally posted error message. All of the [homes] share parameters must be commented out. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1261873 Title: 'net usershare' returned error 255 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/1261873/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
