Comment 41 for bug 207072

Hi

Seems to me that you're referring to another bug. What I've observed is that
the "Network" is working but not "predictably". For example, if you login
and go to nautilus -> network, it is empty. If you leave things as they are
for 5-10 minutes, then try again, there are some things appearing. I dont
browse the network, I usually map the drives directly with smbfs. However, I
did notice this behavior so maybe you should watch out for it - leave it as
it is for 5-10 minutes, then open Nautilus -> Network again....

Maybe it is dependent on the number of machines on the network? For us it is
more than 200...
