Samba and Gnome

[Noah John Gellner]

I am accessing Windows shares, not samba shares. I am able to use my Linux box
in a Windows environment, but not being able to access shares makes it less
than smooth. I can access the shares using konqueror (3.3.0)

To confirm, are you currently using the dev versions of nautilus? If so, what
versions and on which distro?
