** Description changed: - File roller reports insufficient permissions when trying to create a new archive in samba share. - It can't add new files to an existing archive either. - Only the extraction of files is permitted. + I have a large directory, almost 50Gb and 45.000 files shared by samba on ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS server. + When trying to add some files to an archive, file roller reports insufficient permissions. + It can't add new files to an existing archive either, only the extraction of files is permitted. + + Steps to reproduce: + - mount the shared directory; + - select any file, or group of files; + - right click on the selection and choose "Compress..." + - click on "Create". + + What happens: File-roller reports insufficient privileges. + What should happen: a new archive containing the selected files is created in the remote directory.
