Bug Description
I've a NAS with samba server and there are no problems if i use it from a windows xp client.
With Ubuntu Hardy, i search the shares with nautilus, i find them in the workgroup and i mount them also, but... after few minutes i lost the connection, even if i use the mounted share (e.g.: transferring data to/from the NAS).
I get some errors by the applications when using files stored on the NAS server.
The system say that are no applications for open the file (mime: octet-stream).
I've tried to add the ip address of the NAS in my /etc/hosts file and /etc/lmhosts file, and i've tried to associate type octet-stram with application "Open Folder" in Nautilus.
Now i seem to have reduced the problem, so i get no data from the share after some minutes (like a timeout) but i no get the others errors and messages.
To get back the connection i now i have to refresh/recall many times the shares with nautilus.
Using the share on a samba server of another Ubuntu box, i have no problem, other than the error i get when i make the bookmark (the same message i get when i bookmark the NAS shares, sorry i have no data for posting exactly the message now).
Any idea?

Are you able to connect to the NAS server using smbclient from the command
line ?
