Hm. I’m not sure what that means. The only way I’ve worked with sharing is mounting the foreign folder like
mount -t cifs //192.168.1.12/SharedFolder /mnt/shares/
How do switch from dav to samba?
(Why is dav the default? Should I be using dav instead?)

@joekamprad said in Gnome Control Center / Samba Problem:
i can see a dav:// url …
Does that mean something? That path gives an error message (“Oops, something went wrong” etc) when I paste it into Nautilus.

I went through the Antergos Samba guide - twice, actually, on 2 different Antergos machines. One one, it worked perfectly! The shares are up and available. On the second one, however, something’s gone wrong.
I went through the entire guide, and everything should work, but when I go to Nautilus and right click > “Sharing Options” > “Share this Folder” it gives me an error, telling me I need to enable Sharing in the System Settings.
So I go to Gnome Control Center, to this section:
I can select Require Password, and I can add a password, but the top left “OFF” button - when I click it to turn it ON, it just immediately turns off again. (That bottom button will change from gray to blue, but I can’t make any selections or anything with it.)
I’ve restarted repeatedly, updated everything - I even tried to start Gnome Control Center as root (sudo gnome-control-center failed without launching) and I can’t figure out how to fix it.
Any thoughts?
TIA
