Bug Description
Binary package hint: nautilus
I think this is an important ubuntu general bug, and it does the system pretty unusable with networks.
Most Ubuntu applications fails to open network sftp:// smb:// files with nautilus.
HTML files: Firefox FAILS, Opera FAILS,..
PDF files: Evince OK, Acroread FAILS, KPDF FAILS, XPDF FAILS
Image files: Gnome Eye OK, GQVIEW FAILS
openoffice: FAILS sometimes
And this is the iceberg's tip, there is a lot more apps and file tipes failing.
Is there not a transparent protocol for apps open network files??
Thx.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately we can't fix it, because your description didn't include enough information. You may find it helpful to read "How to report bugs effectively" [WWW] http:// www.chiark. greenend. org.uk/ ~sgtatham/ bugs.html. We'd be grateful if you would then provide a more complete description of the problem.
We have instructions on debugging some types of problems at [WWW] http:// wiki.ubuntu. com/DebuggingPr ocedures
At a minimum, we need:
1. the specific steps or actions you took that caused you to encounter the problem,
2. the behavior you expected, and
3. the behavior you actually encountered (in as much detail as possible).
Thanks!
