Hi, I want to share a directory to friends. I do remember that it has once worked before in nautilus just by right-clicking on a directory.
but now, it prompts: > '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. > ls -ld /var/lib/samba/usershares told me > drwxrwx--T 2 root haldaemon 4096 2010-07-21 21:12 usershares/ I consider the group haldaemon is highly suspicious since it is located after user 'upload' (see below) I created for uploading. see vipw below.
