"What we don't like is people who just come in, yell about how it sucks
and all, but not provide specific exam..."

I have no problem with that statement, and actually agree that some end
users could do a better job of expressing themselves. There does seem to
be some presumed rights on the end users expectations. However,  This
still does not address the point I made, why get so lost in the details
of what the end user did wrong ? The point of this post/ bug report is
still that users are not able to share files. Its not what the user did
wrong, its what the coder did wrong. Dependencies are not being checked.
Stop telling the user he did something wrong or should have done
something different when files sharing should have worked out of the box
with no problems at all. It did not work out of the box, Thats why I
jumped in to this.

I will be the very first to jump in and say thank you for scratching
your itch and provide FREE code for this platform. However, in your
code, would you at least check to see that dependencies are met ?

I am not going to go back to 8.04 to see which command I HAD to run
under a terminal to get file sharing to work correctly, it did not work,
I moved on to a different release that works out of the box.
