Bug ID: 475946 Summary: Share properties page shows incorrect, bogus error message Classification: Frameworks and Libraries Product: kdenetwork-filesharing Version: unspecified Platform: Other OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: unassigned-b...@kde.org Reporter: stefan.bru...@rwth-aachen.de CC: sit...@kde.org Target Milestone: --- Created attachment 162487 --> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=162487&action=edit Wrong error message The group manager now checks for a "valid" group name for the usershares, but gets this awfully wrong. >From the `net` man page *** USERSHARE ... To set this up, first set up your /etc/samba/smb.conf by adding to the [global] section: usershare path = /var/lib/samba/usershares Next create the directory /var/lib/samba/usershares, change the owner to root and set the group owner to the UNIX group who should have the ability to create usershares, for example a group called "serverops". Set the permissions on /var/lib/samba/usershares to 01770. Note the example "serverops", which is not accepted, as it does not contain "samba". *Any* group should be accepted for the properties page. Notably, there is nothing which disallows "users" for the usershares group. STEPS TO REPRODUCE Open the properties dialog, share page OBSERVED RESULT False error message is shown. EXPECTED RESULT Valid configuration is accepted.
