Description Jaakko Holster 2006-09-27 12:41:21 UTC 
Version:           3.5.2 (using KDE 3.5.2, Kubuntu Package 4:3.5.2-0ubuntu18.1 dapper)
Compiler:          Target: x86_64-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.15-23-amd64-k8

Currently the directory properties dialog (alt+return in file manager) shows (at least) four tabs: General, Permissions, Share, and Sharing.

For advanced user, it's easy to figure out that the "Share" tab is for NFS/Samba sharing while the "Sharing" tab allows the directory to be shared via web. However, for novice user who barely knows the concept of "file sharing" it maybe be confusing to have two almost similarly named tabs.

I suggest either renaming the tabs ("Local sharing", "Web sharing") or merging them into one tab (just "Share").
