Whoops, how did I misread that? Okay, so the nautilus-share package will be in the final release but was absent from the beta.
I installed nautilus-share. I then restarted Nautilus with nautilus -q. I then saw the sharing options choice on the right-click menu, and went for that, and tried to set up a share of a subfolder of my home folder. Then I got this error: 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare: cannot open usershare directory /var/lib/samba/usershares. Error Permission denied You do not have permission to create a usershare. Ask your administrator to grant you permissions to create a share. I still get this error if I disable the write access and guest access options. What I expected to happen: Either (a) it should "just work" (I've heard rumors of something called "simple sharing," where and what is it?) or (b) I should get a root password escalation prompt and then it should work.
