[Bug 389049] Re: usershares guest_ok=y results in "Permission denied" error

[Anton Belyaev]

Yes, execute bit is enough.

While Nautilus in Gnome offers to set some permissions automatically for
the shared folder, it does not set it for parent (home) folder.

Somehow after a fresh install permissions for my home were drwx------.
For newly created desktop users (after the installation), their home permissions were drwxr-xr-x.

I have a question: doesnt setting X bit violate any privacy for me? I
would like to share a single directory in my home without loosening
permissons for the rest of home.
