Description of problem: Using Nautilus, you can visit a samba share if you enter the URI directly. For example: smb://server/share But if you attempt to browse the network to reach the share, no network shares appear. As a replacement for Microsoft Computers, browsing the Windows Network shares is very important. This has been documented in a review of Fedora Core 2 on eweek.com: http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1568349,00.asp I would have thought this would have been reported already, but I did not see it anywhere in Bugzilla. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Gnome 2.6, Nautilus. How reproducible: Very reproducible, happens every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open the Main Menu in Gnome. 2. Select Network Servers. 3. Open Windows Network. 4. No shares are visable here. Actual results: None. Expected results: A list of the browseable windows networks, worgroups, domains or computers is expected. Additional info: I consider this a very important bug to fix. Your consern may vary.

David, it appears you are correct. Thanks, I've marked this bug as a dupe. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 123899 ***
I'm not so sure this is a Dupe of #123899 anymore. There is a disussion in that bug list that these may be seperate issues. It does match closely to #122292, so I will reasign this as a dupe of that bug.
