Comment 133 for bug 207072

In my case, the problem still remains. All Samba-Shares even from other
Linux-Computers can be viewed, but all the Shares of Windows-PCs are not
seen. In Konqueror, both can be viewed.

What I don't understand, that it requests the password after entering
into the share, not before browsing to PC. In Konqueror you must type it
when you enter into the Computer to view all the shares, instead of
entering into the share and typing then.
