Just to let you know I've experienced this bug on two Hardy machines in my home. I've also got XP, Vista machines that can see and access all smb shares.

My smb.conf is very similar to the guide outlined here: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-setup-samba-server-with-tdbsam-backend.html

Nautilus fails at browsing any shares. Although, I can mount a non authenticated share via terminal.

In reply to thanos,

Thanks for posting the patch. I verified md5 sum and I've renamed the old executable to gvfsd-smb-browse.bak and copied your patched one into /usr/lib/gvfs and rebooted. I've got a different problem now. Now when I try to browse the network I get this error: Failed to execute child process "/usr/lib/gvfs/gvfsd-smb-browse" (Permission denied).

Apparently I screwed up the permissions along the way. Not sure how. I did everything as root, renamed old file and copied new one to the path. I do notice when I do a list in terminal it's the only file in /usr/lib/gvfs that isn't highlighted green.

Any feedback would be appreciated.
