From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20031030 Description of problem: I would have expected the normal behaviour of the samba browser would be to save the password details I submit for the whole of the session and not requiring to enter the password once I download a file in a remote directory. This happens when I do not place a username, but only a 'password'. I am not sure if this is a bug only in this case and whether the normal behaviour occurs when you also enter a username. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): nautilus-2.4.0-7 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Connect to samba share where password (but not username) is required 2.Attempt to download a file Actual Results: The password details are requested again (more than twice actually) Expected Results: The first password entered should be saved Additional info:
I have the same problem when access a folder in a share or i try to write files, sometimes appear a message with "access denied", it's strange because I update RH9 to FC1 and when I had RH9 I never had that problem.
The smb support in gnome 2.4 is a bit lacking. I've worked on it for gnome 2.6, so this works much much better in rawhide.
