Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gvfs-backends

The new gvfs backend system for Nautilus et al. in Hardy beta seems to
have some problems browsing SMB shares (both Windows and Samba). I'm
subscribing this just to gvfs-smb, but I haven't tested other network
backends like ftp. The problem is as follows: trying to "enter" SMB
shares from the network view in Nautilus or from a "mounted" share in
the desktop nearly always times out. This didn't happen in older
versions (with the gnomevfs backend), and does not happen with gnomevfs
in Hardy, as shown:

With GNOMEVFS (works)
$ gnomevfs-ls smb://salon/Documents
.               (Directory, x-directory/normal) size 0  mode 0755
..              (Directory, x-directory/normal) size 0  mode 0755
mythtv_config           (Directory, x-directory/normal) size 0  mode 0755
StepMania-3.9           (Directory, x-directory/normal) size 0  mode 0755
mediacenter             (Directory, x-directory/normal) size 0  mode 0755
mythtv.log              (Regular, text/x-log)   size 6785       mode 0644
docs            (Directory, x-directory/normal) size 0  mode 0755

With GVFS (request additional mount step, which I figure is by design, but then 
times out)
$ gvfs-ls smb://salon/Documents
Error: La ubicación especificada no está montada (translation: specified 
location is not mounted)
$ gvfs-mount smb://salon/Documents
$ gvfs-ls smb://salon/Documents
Error: Expiró el tiempo de conexión (translation: connection timed out)

I can confirm this is _not_ due to users/credentials problems, as I
control both machines and have adjusted all required permissions.

Release: Ubuntu hardy (development branch) 8.04 - i.e. Hardy beta
gvfs-backends version: 0.2.2-1 (last available)
Expected behaviour: system lists files in SMB share, as old gnomevfs did
Actual behaviour: "connection timeout" error
