I am logged in as root (don't ask), but when doing the File->Connect to Server dialog, I enter the user name 'roderick'. This connects to the server but keeps bringing up the password dialog in an endless loop. Ethereal trace indicates that the local machine is attempting to use the 'root' username to connect rather than than 'roderick'.
What is the actual URI of the connect-to-server setting in gconf? if its sftp://server/dir/ its a nautilus bug, if its sftp://roderick@server/dir then its a gnome-vfs bug.
Its smb://roderick@server/share -> gnome-vfs2 then
