I had the same problem with a fresh install of 9.10. The cause is that
the programs "testparm" and "net" (in /usr/bin/) are called
"testparm.samba3" and "net.samba3".
Reproduce as follows:
- right click on a folder
- choose "sharing options"
- this asks for installing software, do this
- It then asks for nautilus to change the permission on the folder, click yes
- This leads to the error " "testparm" no such file or directory"
Run the following from the console to fix it.
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/testparm.samba3 /usr/bin/testparm
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/net.samba3 /usr/bin/net
After this sharing worked for me.
** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu)
Status: Invalid => New
