Yes, execute bit is enough. While Nautilus in Gnome offers to set some permissions automatically for the shared folder, it does not set it for parent (home) folder.
Somehow after a fresh install permissions for my home were drwx------. For newly created desktop users (after the installation), their home permissions were drwxr-xr-x. I have a question: doesnt setting X bit violate any privacy for me? I would like to share a single directory in my home without loosening permissons for the rest of home. -- usershares guest_ok=y results in "Permission denied" error https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/389049 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
