Hello jhansonxi, thank you for taking the time to file this bug report
and help make Ubuntu better!

This is not really a bug in Samba. Samba is working exactly as it is
designed, by having the system level configuration file override any
ephemeral shares created with the net command.

I tried to reproduce this issue on Ubuntu 10.10, and it happened as
mentioned above. Nautilus-share should warn the user that their share
name conflicts with a system level share.

As such, I'm reassigning this bug back to nautilus-share, and marking it
as Confirmed.

Setting importance to Low, as this only affects users who have setup
system level shares.



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

** Changed in: nautilus-share (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided => Low

** Changed in: nautilus-share (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Confirmed
