GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 545885
Can't browse Windows shares in Domain
Last modified: 2014-05-29 06:24:58 UTC
Please describe the problem: I'm running Ubuntu 8.04. We have a domain environment. I can find the servers using the Places>Network nautilus app. When I select one of the servers I'm not prompted for a password and I do not see any of the shares. I can see the servers but the shares are not shown. If then I then add a share name to the end of the address ie. smb://jehu/trillium "trillium" is a share on server named "Jehu". Doing this prompts the authentication dialog and I then can access the share. Steps to reproduce: 1. Click Places>Network 2. Select a server from the list 3. No shares are listed. Actual results: I see a blank white window with no shares listed, no prompting for authentication to the network share is given. No shares are seen. Expected results: I expect to be prompted for authentication to the network share, upon successful authentication I expect to see the shares on the server I've selected. Does this happen every time? yes without fail Other information: This doesn't happen when using Kubuntu, the issue seems very much part of Gnome and Nautilus only.
I believe this is a duplicate of bug #524485
