[ubuntu-in] System administrator to enable user sharing- how?

[74yrs old]

Lists,
Thanks for the response.  Re-installed Ubuntu-8.04 two times (By formatting
and re-installing), but still no improvement - same error message of
nautilus  displayed again

Since proper solution is not forthcoming,  I decided to remove latest
Ubuntu-8.04
and install old version Ubuntu-7.10 LTS. Tested by copying tessdada from
MSwindows  and pasted into /usr/local/share/tessdata successfully - no error
nautilus message displayed.  Now problem is solved for the present.

It appears that there is some unknown problems with latest version Ubuntu
8.04
