Comment 119 for bug 207072

That sounds like a different issue. Maybe a browser master problem. This bug affect specificly browsing the shares on the machines not the entire domain/workgroup.

Subject: [Bug 207072] Re: nautilus does not display samba shares for machines inside an ADS network.

I am running Ubuntu 8.04.1 32 bit and this bug hit me suddenly this
morning. Up till now, I was able to browse my office networks smb
shares without difficulty. As of this morning, none of them work. All
4 of my ubuntu workstations are affected. I have saved bookmarks to
places on the network that stopped working. I found that I had to
change the network path, for example, from smb://server/pictures to
smb://10.0.0.5/pictures that finally got all of them working again. I
am still unable to browse my network with the Places > Network GUI. It
shows the network and then the workgroup, but nothing beyond that. It
eventually times out. I was not planning to upgrade my office machines
to 8.10, preferring to stay with the LTS version, but if I need to
upgrade to fix this, I will. This is a nasty regression that needs to
be fixed.
