Fixes:
* NSS Cancel button on first dialog now cancels the application.

Improvements:
* NSS now creates a smb.conf backup copy in /etc/samba/smb.conf.bak on first launch
* NSS checks if smb.conf.bak file exists not to duplicate it or overwrite it on subsequent launches  (smb.conf.bak will remain a copy of the original smb.conf file)
* NSS now checks that samba setting netbios name = hostname in /etc/samba/smb.conf on every launch. If not, it will set it accordingly.
* NSS now creates UFW rules on first launch to allow Samba through the firewall
* NSS checks smb.conf for warning or errors and prompts the user to correct the configuration.
    If the configuration error is not critical, NSS allows users to move forward and and restart NSS services
    If the configuration error is critical, NSS will not allow the service to be restarted. Instead it loops to the configuration for adjustments.

I think this is excellent. Thank you taking the time to make the video, I find this approach fantastic for reviewing your changes.
Let's see how much more of the process we can automate between now and 3.6

Cheers Ralphy :)

Well, since you had a surprise for me with those ISOs... I got a surprise for you as well.

Let me know what you think about this Network Share Settings version:

p.s. My software does not have any other format other than MP4 so it is yet another MP4 video; sorry.

I guess I can push changes to GH again already?

As previously explained, we can only use Yad in new applications. We cannot add yad as a dependency in an existing applications, because it breaks the install process for that app.
It's a pity, cos I really like this. Keep this code though for 4.x Series :)

I guess I'm still dropping the ball. I just packaged it, added yad as dependency without removing any other dependency, installed it in 3.4 and it went smooth. So, I really don't understand what you mean we cannot add yad as a dependency in an existing applications. I'm obviously missing something  :-\

There are people that won't upgrade to 3.4, that have either 3.0 or 3.2. If they stay on 3.0 or 3.2 and they get the new update for Lite Software (containing the new cnss-gui) the Update process will break. It worked for you on 3.4 because I assume you already had yad installed. P.S. try converting your mp4 to webm via ffmpeg or something. This automatic playing of sound is quite annoying. Not your fault obviously, but lets try something else.

I think I finally get it. I've been lost all along. Our updates are delivered to all 3.x series users (3.0, 3.2, 3.4) - I was under the impression that only latest release would get such updates.

Will try

Cheers Ralphy, I'm off to the gym. When I get back in 2 hours, I'll post the 3.4 release announcement etc :)

Hehehehehe,

Ok partner, since we gotta keep it within zenity I have saved the previous one for 4.x and I have updated the current version as shown below:

https://unlockforus.com/downloads/linuxl...enity.webm

It is an improvement regardless, the config file is checked for errors and the user is prompted to reload or restart only if changes to the config file has been made.

I haven't pushed it yet. Will upload it maybe later and if not, tomorrow.

Just beautiful :)
