GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 747102
Nautilus window grayed out connecting to samba share

Created attachment 300656 [details] screenshot.png Attempting to connect to a network share via Registered User > Forget password immediately > Connect immediately shows the same window, with the radio button on Anonymous, the password field blank, and the window grayed out. The samba share is a Vivid instance. This used to work without a problem via a Trusty server+client, and I think also a Trusty server+Utopic client. Hence, this is a regression.
This may be related to this change: https://git.gnome.org/browse/gvfs/commit/?id=a0aec329939e198b6faea6b788df7278f6543436 It's not quite clear to me from your description what happens, can you perhaps make a quick screencast? From the screenshot, it looks like you're connecting to a password-protected OS X share. Is this correct?
Ross Lagerwall, apologies for not getting back to you promptly regarding your information request. Despite this, the issue is no longer reproducible in later versions of nautilus+samba. Hence, I consider this report resolved. apt-cache policy nautilus nautilus: Installed: 1:3.14.2-0ubuntu13 Candidate: 1:3.14.2-0ubuntu13 Version table: *** 1:3.14.2-0ubuntu13 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ wily-updates/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1:3.14.2-0ubuntu12 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ wily/main amd64 Packages apt-cache policy samba samba: Installed: 2:4.1.17+dfsg-4ubuntu3 Candidate: 2:4.1.17+dfsg-4ubuntu3 Version table: *** 2:4.1.17+dfsg-4ubuntu3 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ wily-updates/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 2:4.1.17+dfsg-4ubuntu2 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ wily/main amd64 Packages
