From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.2) Gecko/20040809 Epiphany/1.3.8 Description of problem: The latest version of gnome-vfs2-smb has built-in functionality to authenticate to smb shares using kerberos. However, when I attempt to access a share through nautilus, I still get a username / domain / password dialogue window. I don't have to actually fill in any of the info, so the kerberos functionality is working, but why do I get prompted? Is this in case someone wants to authenticate with different creds? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-vfs2-smb-2.8.1-1 How reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. Obtain a kerberos ticket (via a regular login or via kinit) 2. Use nautilus to go to a share in the same kerberos realm Actual Results: a username / domain / password prompt dialogue appears Expected Results: No prompting should happen at all. Additional info:
My experience with FC4 is the dialog also appears, but leaving the fields blank will not let me log in. Smbclient -k does work, so kerberos is setup correctly.
