[Bug 14774] Re: [shares-admin] Shared folders requires a login
Something I discovered from trying to setup sharing in both Ubuntu and Fedora: An easy way to setup sharing is to install the system-config-samba application, which I think should be installed by default along with Samba. With that utility I was able to setup users for Samba sharing as well as easily defining my shares. I did have to log-in as root to change the permissions on the share (in my case /data), so that everyone had read/write access, but that's because I'm not proficient w/ using chmod as a sudo command. After that, I was able to map the network drive from a Windows laptop and successfully access the shared folder. My MacBook on the other hand, still cannot access it... -- [shares-admin] Shared folders requires a login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/14774 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
[Bug 14774] Re: [shares-admin] Shared folders requires a login
Thank you for taking the time to report this issue and help to improve Ubuntu. I believe this bug has been resolved for hardy, with the removal of shares-admin from gnome-system-tools. The nautilus-share package which replaces it supports both anonymous and authenticated shares. The issue with home directories being shared by default was separately resolved by way of the samba package in dapper. Finally, the issue of needing to call smbpasswd separately in order to access password-protected shares is now being tracked as a bug in the pam package: bug #201291. -- [shares-admin] Shared folders requires a login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/14774 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

[Bug 14774] Re: [shares-admin] Shared folders requires a login
I also ran into a bunch of these problems today with the released gutsy version. Here is what I found: Using "System::Administration::Shared Folders" I can easily share a folder but if I try to access it from a remote machine no combination of username/password will work. To fix that I had to run the following commands in a terminal: 1. sudo -i 2. smbpasswd my_ubuntu_username 3. (then I enter a brand new password for SMB use only) At all time, I kept the default security settings in smb.conf (that is I used security=user). I think that the SAMBA team generally advises against using security=share (I read this in some RHEL documentation page). The security=share security model is what Windows 95 and 98 used. Finally, as a side note; I'm pretty sure that the NTFS sharing issue outlined by Robin Haswell above has been fixed in Gutsy. I shared a NTFS mounted drive with no problems at all. I'd love to see some kind of way to create a share without dropping into the command line.

Well, actually I tried it with a default installation but has no effect. Maybe I am missing something, but if I miss it in a default installation users with a default installation do aswell. There maybe the option to show shares only to users of the same workgroup, for example limiting access by IP like windows does I think. -- [shares-admin] Shared folders requires a login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/14774 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
[Bug 14774] Re: [shares-admin] Shared folders requires a login
Oh yeah, that would have an affect. Sharing would start to work out of the box, only it would be rather unsecure (onyone on the LAN (and possibly even the internet) could access your shares). I do not think this should be default but it should be easily accessible alongside the possibility to setup samba accounts and passwords However, that would probably need someone to implement it... -- [shares-admin] Shared folders requires a login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/14774 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

Hi. I wanted to share files with my brother's computer (I am running ubuntu 7.04) but I couldn't get it to work. I wish there was a setup assistant (or something) when you want to share a file/folder so that it just works. It took me a whole lot of time scouring the forums to find out that I needed to set up a samba password/login in terminal. Why can't samba use the same login/password as when I log into my computer? ...I had to set it up in terminal.

I'm sorry but I can only say that this applet is useless at the moment. If someone find out that he need to use smbpasswd utility, there is very short way to learn basics of Samba. Later, user will be able to edit smb.conf manually with no one's help in order to add own shares with more advanced options than shares-admin provide, even if he is total noob.

Alexandre for your work on that. Dapper is stable and will not change, the patches probably need to be different for dapper and edgy then. Using adduser will force users to use a password anyway, no?
