Public bug reported: Ubuntu 8.10
Package: I don't know if this is a Gnome problem, but I'm using Gnome 2.24.1. apt-cache and Synaptic both claim that Gnome is not installed, whatever that means. I used the file browser to make my ~/Public directory available through the router to my roommate's computer, which also runs Ubuntu 8.10. When I first set it up, I was able to upload a file to his computer. Expectation: Any time my computer is on, the directory should automatically be available on the network. What actually happened: If I restart my computer, the directory is no longer on the network. When I go to Places>Home Folder, the Public directory no longer shows the hand icon in the upper right corner. I right-click on it and choose Sharing Options. The "Share this folder" box is still checked. Workaround: If turn off sharing for that folder, then turn it back on again, it seems to work normally. I would guess it's a problem with setting up shared directories at boot time. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Shared directory doesn't become availible on network on startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/312346 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
