I totally agree with Ralf here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/32067/comments/36
I just tried system-config-samba and I didn't like it. It is basically a full dup of what already is present in Ubuntu: - The share list is a dupe of Administration / Shared Folders. That's where I want to set my shared folders, as it is integrated with nautilus too. - The user list is a dupe of Administration / Users and Gruops. There should be only one user list, please. Basically, I believe that system-config-samba is a step in the wrong direction. Besides setting up PAM to keep samba synchronized (which is good), what we only need is a way to set user permissions in shares inside the "Shared Folders" app, and if an user without samba password is selected, a dialog should appear asking to type in the password (just like Mac does!) (and of course warn if it does not match the unix password). -- the security parameter must be set to share, not user, in smb.conf - Smb/Gnome sharing broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/32067 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
