I try to explain what I monitor here on my system (may be this is on my system only?)

1) I right click the folder: /home/andreas/Bilder and select menu item "Freigabeoptionen" in my german version Ubuntu
2) I don't see the check mark of "Diesen Ordner freigeben" checked, the other two check marks are greyed out

Now I do change the 'Diesen Ordner freigeben' attribute by cklicking the checkmark

3) Now the folder is shared - even if I close the properties windows "Freigabeoptionen" and open it again.
4) Now I restart my computer an check the properties of the same folder again.

Observation:

5) There are no checkmarks - it looks like in step 2)
6) The folder is still shared(!) as can be seen by smbclient -L //localhost

That means the check marks of the folder are reset after reboot but not the property to be shared. Please look at the screenshot I just c reated.
