Bug Description
Using 9.04, I attempted to use a shared printer on a Windows machine on our network and was unable to find it. I am unable to access our Windows 2K file server either. I get an error message "Failed to retrieve share list from server" I see some purported fixes in the Ubuntu forums, but was unable to make any of the work-arounds do the job for me... Back to 8.04, I'm afraid. This is something that worked and now is broken so it should be very easily fixed. This is a very basic functionality. Why does this happen? two steps forward and one step back.
Thanks!

This is not a paper cut because it is not a general design and usability issue.
