[Bug 208715] Re: nautilus-share: share can not have the same name as a user

Please feel a bug for 2. 1. Shares-admin or nautilus-share don't automatically export home directories. For that you must edit smb.conf by hands or use other gui like system-config-samba. An user can export is home directorie with nautilus-share, he must just not use is name for the sharename. -

So actually we have two issues now: 1. AFAIK there is no GUI which can export the home directories automatically (you have to do it in /etc/samba/smb.conf). With something like that my problem would be gone. And also I think there's no application to see a list of all the shared folders (except in

As said, it's the samba usershare system that is used by nautilus-share, not the samba old way that shares-admin used. This usershare system do not accept sharename if same user name already exist in the system. If you are not agree with that, feel free to re-open this bug and assign it to samba

well, if shares are set up with shares-admin, they are finally shared with samba.

nautilus-share don't use the same mecanism to share folders than shares-admin. Nautilus-share use shareadmin in samba that use "net usershare add ..." command. ** Changed in: nautilus-share (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- nautilus-share: share can not have the same name as a user https

it's not a bug of nautilus-share. Samba command "net usershare add" refuse to use the name for a share if an user exist with this name. ** Changed in: nautilus-share (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- nautilus-share: share can not have the same name as a user https://bugs.launchpad.net/b
