Bug Description

Tried to browse the local network in nautilus. I got to "Windows network" > "WORKGROUP", but cannot go further. The error message is something like: The list of shares cannot be queryd from the server (translated from my native language).

I run into the same problem in ubuntu 10.10 and LMDE

Current version: Linux Mint 10 julia 32bit

I see this issue appearing randomly too.
Yesterday I did not get any results, today it works.
One thing I changed in between was that I reinstalled a LM7 box with LM10. The box I checked the network on was LM10 on both days.
