[Bug 1061996] Re: Can Not Create Samba Share

[Serge Hallyn]

This sounds like the same symptom as bug 513427.  Could you try editing
/etc/smb/smb.conf and adding

usershare owner only = no

then restart samba and see if that solves the error.  Please do let us
know here whether it does.

Title:
  Can Not Create Samba Share

Status in “samba” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I am running Ubuntu 12.10 and when I try to create a file share it
  gives me this error "'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare
  add: cannot convert name "Everyone" to a SID. The connection was

  restarting it and comes with the same error.
