Bug Description

Binary package hint: nautilus-share

the option: "Allow others to create and delete files in this folder" implies that the behavior with this option deselected will be writable for the owner but not for others. However, the default share is created with read-only permissions for all users:

jacko@mpc540:~$ net usershare info
[fea]
path=/home/jacko/FEA
comment=
usershare_acl=Everyone:R,
guest_ok=n

It seems that the share should be created with these parameters:
"usershare_acl=Everyone:R,User:F"

Samba will allow any authenticated user to read and the user who made the share has full access.
