"Portable" was a shared folder I created at a moment and has been deleted. I have removed it from /var/lib/samba/usershares/ I removed all the share entries in "Samba" (system-config-samba) except 'print$' (I don't remember to have entered it)
1 - The shared folders are no more visible from another Ubuntu computer of the network (we see only 'printer$') ; same thing by smb://localhost/ on my computer 2 - I checked : in Nautilus, they still look like "shared" 3 - Here are the result of the 2 outputs : jpaul@jpblinux:~$ net usershare info [musique] path=/home/jpaul/Musique comment= usershare_acl=Everyone:F, guest_ok=n [Public] path=/home/jpaul/Public comment= usershare_acl=Everyone:F, guest_ok=y [Documents] path=/home/jpaul/Documents comment= usershare_acl=Everyone:F, guest_ok=n [bureau] path=/home/jpaul/Bureau comment= usershare_acl=Everyone:F, guest_ok=n [images] path=/home/jpaul/Images comment= usershare_acl=Everyone:F, guest_ok=n The second one : jpaul@jpblinux:~$ testparm -s Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf rlimit_max: increasing rlimit_max (1024) to minimum Windows limit (16384) Processing section "[printers]" Processing section "[print$]" Loaded services file OK.

Now, we can see immediatly this computer with his shared folders (when they are visible !) from the other one in Nautilus without using the IP address. So stand by for this second issue.
