File sharing doesn't work

[Ofir Klinger]

Binary package hint: dolphin

Trying to share files on a fresh install of Kubuntu doesn't work.

Try:
Open Dolphin
Go to Home folder
Right-click the Documents folder
Go to Share tab
Click on "Configure File Sharing..."
You will be asked for root password. Enter it.
Then nothing happens :(

I run Dolphin from the cli and I got the following errors:

No such method DolphinApplication::loadCommandLineOptionsForNewInstance()
QInotifyFileSystemWatcherEngine::addPaths: inotify_add_watch failed: No such file or directory
QFileSystemWatcher: failed to add paths: /home/ofir/.config/ibus/bus

QSocketNotifier: Invalid socket 14 and type 'Read', disabling...

BTW, doing:
sudo apt-get install kdenetwork-filesharing libsmbclient samba samba smbclient
DOESN'T solve the problem!

I am using:
Kubuntu 10.10 with latest updates to 05.11.2010, on Dell Vostro 3300.

Eventually a restart helped, but it shouldn't be that way.

File sharing needs to be easier...
