[Bug 995812] [NEW] share samba doesn't work easily

[J-Paul BERARD]

Public bug reported:

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 !
