    Problem setting up Samba

    I'm using Ubuntu 9.10. I installed Samba, but when I try selecting a folder to share it won't let me. I've attached a jpg of the error message below. Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks.

    create the share using the root user. i.e
    #sudo nautilus
    then right click the folder and select share or

    sudo apt-get upgrade

    sudo cp /usr/bin/testparm.samba3 /usr/bin/testparm
    sudo cp /usr/bin/net.samba3 /usr/bin/net
    sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/testparm /usr/bin/net
