[Bug 41955] Re: Normal user cannot share folders from home, even if authorised

2008-04-26 Thread Tobias Bradtke
I got the same error on Hardy Heron with all updates.
The problem is that the user is added to the sambashare-group, but this takes 
first effect after log off/on..

So this should be tested and stated instead of the actual error message.

[Bug 41955] Re: Normal user cannot share folders from home, even if authorised

2008-04-25 Thread Greg
This error has returned in the latest release of Ubuntu - Hardy Heron.
I am trying to share folders on my ubuntu box and I get the exact same error as 
Townk
I am logging into the box remotely using Ubuntu's built-in remote desktop 
server from a windows box, this might be the reason the error is poping up

I just update my Ubuntu and this bug seems to be fixed. Please anyone
else to confirm?

Same here. To my shame I must say, I'm not even sure I updated. Maybe I
just rebooted. Though the need for reboots seems to be something for
that other os. ;) everything works now.

[Bug 41955] Re: Normal user cannot share folders from home, even if authorised

2008-04-12 Thread Townk
I had the same problem but with a different approach:

* I right click on my Public folder (which is located on my ~) and choose 
Share..
* I checked the Share this folder checkbox
* Add some comments
* Check the Guest access checkbox
* Click on Create Share button

Then Nautilus shows me the following message:
'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 checked and my user has the sambashare group and this is the output of an ls 
-l on /var/lib/samba:
drwxrwx--t 2 root sambashare  4096 2008-04-12 18:51 usershares/

I hope this helps.
