Can't see shares in smb/windows domain.

1) Get domain network 2) Browser it and try to get shares in nautilus Background is: smbclient -L sharename cause "Error returning browse list: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED" When I enter and password all is ok. In gnome I can get access to share by url smb://host/share. Gnome ask me for domain/user/password. When I try to get all shares gnome does'n ask me for login, doen't authentificati itself in domain and can't get sahre list.
I get the same behavious here (fedora-core 2 / gnome-2.6). It looks like gnome-vfs is not doing any authentication when requesting browse lists. The user is not prompted for a password/username. Connecting to the actually shares themselves works OK, but browsing doesn't. Since not all Win32 networks require browse-authentication, this issue only appears for sites which do require authentication. I think there should be an option somewhere in gconf for a default set of smb-credentials (username/password) and, if set, these are used for *all* smb operations by default. If an operation fails, the username/password prompt should appear.
I'd prefer being asked about the username / password once per session. I'm a bit uncomfortable with storing my passwords in the file system, but having them stored in memory would be acceptable to me. Isn't this a dup of bug 132933?
Sounds like it's a duplicate allright. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 132933 ***
