GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 136398
Close all parent windows does not work when browsing smb
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
When browsing a windows network by clicking on "network" from "computer" and browsing the file shares if you then try and close all parent folders none of parents are closed unlike when browsing the local file system. The expected result would be to close all the parent windows at least all the smb ones. If this isn't possible then the option should be greyed all.
This is the case with the Computer icon as well, in Nautilus 2.6
This is because network isn't *really* a child of network:// the stuff in computer:// are just links to various places. Its sort of non-obvious though.

This basically works as one would expect now (I think) in 2.8. If some is still having problems with it on 2.8, please reopen this bug. Thanks.
