The gconf key didn't exist without a log out and log back in. Setting it
with gconftool-2 worked though. I can use nautilus to browse it locally
(navigating from computer->network->tjb's public files on the same
machine that is doing the sharing) but from another machine, the public
folder doesn't appear as an entity on the network. I have tcp wrappers
locked down so could this be the problem? It works great locally though.
