Title:
Nautilus share option doesn't allow guests
Status in nautilus-share package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Binary package hint: nautilus-share
Whenever I share a folder through the right-click option on Nautilus,
even if I set it to allow guests, this shared folder will always ask
me for a username/password on any Windows machine (I've tried XP,
Vista, and 7), and it won't even ask me for this data if I try to
access it from another Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.
From what I've gathered, both smb.conf files (in /etc/samba/ and in
/usr/share/samba/) are untouched, which makes it look like the
extension isn't working. On Ubuntu 9.10 this worked the first time I
tried it, but no idea what might be happening here on 10.04.
I order for it to work, I have to add it manually to the smb.conf
file, allowing guests, and also using "force user =", otherwise just
as guests it'd keep asking for the username/password.
I attached the "testparm -s" output, and here's the package versions:
libpam-smbpass 2:3.4.7~dfsg-1ubuntu3 samba install ok installed
libsmbclient 2:3.4.7~dfsg-1ubuntu3 samba install ok installed
libwbclient0 2:3.4.7~dfsg-1ubuntu3 samba install ok installed
samba 2:3.4.7~dfsg-1ubuntu3 install ok installed
samba-common 2:3.4.7~dfsg-1ubuntu3 samba install ok installed
samba-common-bin 2:3.4.7~dfsg-1ubuntu3 samba install ok installed

winbind 2:3.4.7~dfsg-1ubuntu3 samba install ok installed
