Bug Description
Binary package hint: nautilus
This bug is issued after some exchanges in the forum around the thread: http://
The problem is solved by using a work around. I'm opening a bug on the normal procedure which fails.
Basically and to summarise the discussion, there is a shared folder on the network which only requires a password (like in the 90s), no user name is set. It is not possible to browse this network folder nor to attach it locally (Connect to server) using Nautilus tools. However, Samba is working properly. When using the Samba command line tools, it is possible the browse the folder and up-/down-load files. Also, manually mounting using the 'mount' command does work.
When using Nautilus, if a user name is specified or not in the "Connect to server" window, there is always the same error coming up: ""320GB" couldn't be found. Perhaps it has recently been deleted."
Note: 320GB is the name of the shared folder.
This problem could be related with Bug 98658 (https:/
PS: reading the entire thread is perhaps not necessary, only the first posts and the latest ones (page 3) are probably enough.
