You have been subscribed to a public bug: I have kubuntu feisty fawn and ubuntu feisty fawn on two different computers. I first shared a folder with Ubuntu, it automatically installed smb and nfs and the sharing of a directory worked perfectly.
Then I tried in Kubuntu, firstly I had to do a manual install of smb and nfs, is that normal ?, because the sharing application told me smb and/or nfs was missing but no automatic installation like on Ubuntu. Then when I shared a folder I could not access it even though i could see it from both Ubuntu and Kubuntu. Something like this folder cannot be found. I looked at the differences between the smb.conf of Ubuntu and Kubuntu. Kubuntu : [name] path = /home/folderpath guest ok = yes read only = no case sensitive = no strict locking = no msdfs proxy = no Ubuntu : [name] path = /home/folderpath available = yes browsable = yes public = yes writable = yes So I deleted all the options of the smb.conf of kubuntu and wrote the ones found in Ubuntu. Why is there such a difference, especially when it doesn't work out of the box with kubuntu ?
