Samba and Gnome

[Martin Duclos]

Hmmm, I am using whichever is the newer versoin of nautilus on FC1. I was 
just making a quick suggestion of something to try. I guess you'll have to 
keep looking! I don't really have any leads that can help you for now. Mabe 
dev versions aren't the best thing to rely on... If I come across a way to 
fix it, I'll let you know.

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?
