Public bug reported: I am attempting to share files with a computer on 7.10 and have not found a viable solution. Using Hardy Beta, I have installed all the optionals packages to have samba support and nautilus support for file sharing.
Packages involved: samba, samba-common, nautilus-share Steps to reproduce: 1) Right click folder to share 2) Select all boxes allowing guest access to that directory, click ok 3) From remote computer (using 7.10) go to Places > Network > Windows Network > workgroup > Ubuntu > Share Expected result: able to list, copy from and to the share Actual result: The folder contents couls not be displayed. "Share" couldn't be found. Perhaps it has recently been deleted. While developers are trying to correct smb/samba/cifs issues is there anything stable I could use for easy file sharing between two computers on a subnet. ** Affects: samba (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- [Hardy] Can't share files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/214556 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
