I open files on samba shares all the time with openoffice. This issue is very serious and annoying for me since I have to enter password and username every time I open files from a samba share. Which is practically all the time.

Luckily I found another bug report with a temporary solution. The problem is that openoffice doesn't work very well with gvfs.

Change /usr/share/applications/ooo-*.desktop %U with %F so that it will use filesystem path instead of "virtual" (and thus use ~/.gvfs/).

Now I can open files through Nautilus in OOo without problem; I can save them without problem, so long I don't try to override them.
