    F9 Browsing Samba share problem.

    I have problems in Gnome to browse a samba share.

    In Places - Network I can see this samba server and even the shares inside, but when I click on the share an empty window opens up. No files or directories in there.

    Using mount -t cifs, I can browse the content of the share and access all files.
    Using smbclient //server /share, I can list the files in the share, but not able to Get or Mget any file.

    The first time I use Get it shows :
    NT_STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_NOT_FOUND opening remote file \test.png
    And the second time : parallel_read returned NT code 0xf1000000

    I have tried the IP address and the server name in both cases. xsession-errors shows these errors:

    ** (nautilus:2136): WARNING **: Got GFileInfo with NULL name in smb://192.168.1.77/disk%201/, ignoring. This shouldn't happen unless the gvfs backend is broken.

    ** (nautilus:2136): WARNING **: Got GFileInfo with NULL name in smb://atlas/disk%201/, ignoring. This shouldn't happen unless the gvfs backend is broken.

    I tried a Windows share and it works without problem. Seems there is a problem with either Samba or this GVFS Backend.

    Any suggestions ?

    I just installed Ubuntu 8.04 on another computer and checking the same share it works !!
    Checking the Gnome version it says just like fedora 2.22.

    Am still searching to know why it does not work in Fedora.

    I found a solution to my problem.

    The server sharing was a Linksys NSLU2. I found out that it was running Samba version 2. By upgrading it's firmware to the latest version that have a Samba version 3, F9 can now browse it's contents with Nautilus.

    So although it is fixed now, still am wondering why Ubuntu had no problems with it at all.
