(Get the code!)
I totally agree with Ralf here:
https:/
I just tried system-config-samba and I didn't like it. It is basically a full dup of what already is present in Ubuntu:
- The share list is a dupe of Administration / Shared Folders. That's where I want to set my shared folders, as it is integrated with nautilus too.
- The user list is a dupe of Administration / Users and Gruops. There should be only one user list, please.
Basically, I believe that system-config-samba is a step in the wrong direction. Besides setting up PAM to keep samba synchronized (which is good), what we only need is a way to set user permissions in shares inside the "Shared Folders" app, and if an user without samba password is selected, a dialog should appear asking to type in the password (just like Mac does!) (and of course warn if it does not match the unix password).
