anyway, i think that a message saying the user must relogin is still unacceptable. the problem is not that the error message doesnt contain helpful information. the problem is that ERRORS ARE BAD. we should not get an error in the first place. it is inconvenient and unnecessary (and confusing) to have to log out and log back in
it seems that there are a LOT of suggestions as to how this can get fixed, why not implement them? dynamic updating user permissions, restarting nautilus and "su -c $USERNAME", and "newgrp sambashare" are three ways. i will test and see if "newgrp sambashare" will work and post the results here very soon.
ok, that was clarifying.
