[Bug 995817] Re: share samba doesn't work easily

[Serge Hallyn]

Hi J-Paul,

I'm pretty sure you are right and system-config-samba should not be
needed.  You were trying to share files through nautilus which should do
it itself.  If I'm wrong about that and it cannot, then it should be
automatically installing it.  In either case, I'll re-target this bug at
nautilus.

** Package changed: samba (Ubuntu) => nautilus (Ubuntu)

Title:
  share samba doesn't work easily

Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Share a folder in a simple domestic network need to check the share item in the folder properties.
  Ubuntu ask to install samba and libpam-smbpass. After reboot and check this item again, Ubuntu ask to change the permissions.
  After this point, it should work ! It would be quite easy.

  It doesn't !

  2 more things were necessary :
  I had to add system-config-samba and add again the share folders.
  From the other computer (with Ubuntu) I must connect with the IP adress to see these share folders !

  Is it normal ? Thanks !
