With me Nautilus always asks for credentials for password protected shares, but a message 'failed to load windows share' always comes up. Also when using the ip isntead of the dns name.

Kind regards,
Rob.

I can confirm this too with password protected samba shares.

Nautlius does not ask for credentials.

gvfs-mount does, but the created share does not work.
funny thing is when using the IP number instead of the host name, everything works as expected (nautilus and gvfs-mount). In this case credentials are asked and used.

e.g. smb://media/music works not, smb://192.168.0.4/music works.

hope this helps.
