The Great Shared Directory Dilemma

[Stephen]

I have an Ubuntu Machine sharing out an ext4 share and it runs like a
champ. However it is a completely unrestricted share and i cheat and
use webmin to manage it. I like webmin because it doesn't do
everything for you. it just breaks down config files in a nice way.
but it was pretty handy.

In my shares case i set the share to use a specific user for local
file permissions then allowed guest access and it was a go. was very
simple.
