Description Matthew Burke 2004-03-13 03:30:19 UTC

Version:           kcmshell fileshare - Version (Unknown) (using KDE KDE 3.2.1)
Installed from:    RedHat RPMs
Compiler:          Used RPMs downloaded from ftp://ftp.oregonstate.edu/pub/kde/stable/3.2.1/RedHat/Fedora/i386/ 
OS:          Other

I'm using KDE 3.2.1. I enabled the option to 'Allow users to share files from thier HOME folder.' But when I go to share a file from my HOME folder all I have is a button to 'Configure File Sharing...' Even after I do so, KDE doesntt care, and still does not allow users to share files from thier HOME folder. It worked fine in 3.2.0, but no longer in 3.2.1.

Forgot to mention that I am running on Fedora Core 1 if that makes a difference

Can you check if the executable 'fileshareset' is suid root?

I close this bug because of missing information.
