[Hardy Beta] Windows shared folders not always visible.

[Turbo]

Hi again. ;-)

Here I go with my -full patched- Hardy Heron Beta.

If you browse a Windows domain using Places-->Network, you not always can see the shared content
from the Windows computers in that domain. The funny part is that you can see the shared folders
in the same domain in some computers, meaning it's not uniform the behavior. It never ask for
authentication or something, it just works fine for some windows computers but not in others. Quite
curious.

Best Regards.

Turbo.

is this still broken with current releases?

Hi,

At this moment, I have a full patched Ubuntu 8.04.1.

It's sad but the problem is still there. You can connect to a Windows PC and browse AD but the shared resources can't be seen. The same happens if you try to install a Windows shared printer and you say "Browse". A month ago I was reading a very heavy post about this regard here in launchpad but I fotgot the number. Someone even post some sort of patch to aleviate the situation.

Best Regards.

Turbo.

Is this symptom still reproducible in 8.10 or 9.04?
