I have the following problem, testing with Ubuntu 8.10 Alpha 4+, trying to connect to a company SMB network server share. Nautilus tells me:

----
Could not display "smb://servername/myshare$/" - Einhängen des Ortes nicht möglich.
----

This worked ok when I used 8.04. However, nautilus shows the share as mounted (gets a shortcut on the left side, as a cd would which has been inserted into a local drive). When I press the "eject" (unmount) button for this share, I sometimes get the following error message:

----
Could not display "smb://servername/myshare$/". Fehler: DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.InvalidArgs: Mountpoint Already registered - Bitte wählen Sie einen anderen Betrachter und versuchen Sie es erneut.
----
I entered my account data the first time I tried to connect. Strangely enough, in the properties you can see how many files there are on this share and how much data there is all in all, but the file list cannot be displayed.

I reported this bug under https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/216465. However, going more into it, I think this was the wrong thread to report this to. Is this thread I am writing in now the right one, or should I open a new one?
