All configured ok, worked with 3.5.9, with 3.6.0 it does not work. All the options are greyed out. If i manually add the share (in a textfile) in /var/lib/samba/usershares/, it is shared, so it is not a samba issue. Also, if I use net usershare add/delete, it works fine. 124799 1 sem 2011-09-02 16:15:35 +0400 I can't reproduce this. $ rpm -q samba samba-3.6.0-alt1 > All the options are greyed out. There should be some additional message if something goes wrong. Are you sure that smb and nmb services is up? > Also, if I use net usershare add/delete, it works fine. Very strange, thunar's plugin just uses the same commands, there are no any other magic. 124802 2 alecs 2011-09-02 17:41:57 +0400 [alecs@rainsoul ~]$ rpm -qa | grep -E 'samba-3|thunar-shares' thunar-shares-plugin-0.2.1-alt1.git20110411 samba-3.6.0-alt1 [alecs@rainsoul ~]$ groups alecs wheel fuse vboxusers hashman alecs_a alecs_b sambashare [alecs@rainsoul ~]$ net usershare list '*' torrents muu current2 movies dan It says: You may need to install samba, check your user permissions (usershare group) and re-login.
