[Bug 592610] Re: Shared folders (through Samba) when following instructions sometimes does not work correctly
Via nautilus is usershare. Via smb.conf is root share. Try to set permissions of home to 755 and make a share /home/public If you make a public share samba uses nobody/other as user to change to that directory. Its the last digit of dir permissions that is used. You can see that if you run samba with debug level. But the best way is to use the smb.config edits from above the you can share folders in /home and external ext4 drive like i do. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/592610 Title: Shared folders (through Samba) when following instructions sometimes does not work correctly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/592610/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 592610] Re: Shared folders (through Samba) when following instructions sometimes does not work correctly
are you referring to root share or usershare? root shares work properly and they are meant to be done by fiddling with smb.conf user share via nautilus does not work properly private shares with password (its automatically your login password) work. public (guest) shares in the home directory dont work because samba cannot cd into /home because /home defaul permissons are to strict for "nobody" which is the guest/public samba user. i had a long talk with the maintainer of nautilus-share. there are several possible fixes. 1. set homedirectoy permissons for "eveyone else" properly 2. add force user = owner of the /home/'your username' directoy to smb.con and map to guest = bad password -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/592610 Title: Shared folders (through Samba) when following instructions sometimes does not work correctly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/592610/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
