Sorry, I was half asleep when I did that. :-)

Yeah that seems to have been successful:

Now when I create a share, I'm not prompted to install the service, but I 
receive the following error:

Samba's testparm returned error 1: Load smb config files from 
/etc/samba/smb.conf
Processing section "[printers]"
Processing section "[print$]"
Loaded services file OK.
ERROR: lock directory /var/run/samba does not exist
ERROR: pid directory /var/run/samba does not exist


I don't see why this no longer works seamlessly within Nautilus as it did on my 
first install of Karmic, and every prior version of Ubuntu I've used.
