Bug Description
Binary package hint: samba
Steps to reproduce:
1) Right clicking on a folder in Nautilus and choose "sharing options"
2) Set up an SMB share with write permissions and check the "accept guests" option
3) Using a Windows PC, create a new file (or copy a file) into the new share (no password prompt appears)
4) See how the Ubuntu user cannot access the file without becoming root from command line
affects: | samba (Ubuntu) → nautilus (Ubuntu) |

nautilus doesn't do the sharing, nautilus-share just activates a samba feature there...
