Bug Description

Binary package hint: nautilus

Ubuntu Hardy 8.04

nautilus:
  Installed: 1:2.21.92svn20080303-0ubuntu2
  Candidate: 1:2.21.92svn20080303-0ubuntu2
  Version table:
 *** 1:2.21.92svn20080303-0ubuntu2 0
        500 http://fi.archive.ubuntu.com hardy/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

Other computer is running Samba server version 3.0.26a

On samba shares accessed through nautilus, hidden (dot) folders are visible regardless of "show hidden foles/folders" setting. Using CTRL+H to show hidden files reveals dot files, however dot folders remain unaffected and visible regardless.

Expected behavior: dot folders should be hidden from view, as well as dot files.
