[Bug 1261873] Re: [trusty] "usershare" access denied error (leads to non working nautilus samba sharing)

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package samba - 2:4.1.3+dfsg-2ubuntu5

---------------
samba (2:4.1.3+dfsg-2ubuntu5) trusty; urgency=medium

  * debian/smb.conf: comment back some of the "share definitions"
    options (including "valid users"). That was an Ubuntu diff and seems to
    have been dropped in the trusty merge. Those changes seem needed to
    get the usershare feature working (used by nautilus-share) (lp: #1261873)

Bug description:
  Installed daily build of gnome 14.04 dated 12/17 can not share
  directories.  Getting

  'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare add: cannot convert
  name "Everyone" to a SID. Access denied.

  Copied a unmodified version of smb.conf from my 13.10 system, ran sudo
  service cups restart and now can successfully share directories.
