1) The log: there is just nothing there! in "messages", there are a lot of 
--MARK-- messages each 20 mins or so, while "syslog" contains some pulseaudio 
errors, the hourly run of cron and more --MARK--s.
2) DBUS issues: any possible issue would have been brought by the Hardy beta 
upgrade. Furthermore, HAL (which is also based on DBUS) works fine
3) Network issues: no sugar. As I said, using anything other than gvfs/nautilus 
for browsing it works fine - gnomevfs, mount.cifs, xsmbrowser... So no network 
problems
4) Going to the other box: no need to run ssh, I could do it locally. However, 
that box uses Mythbuntu, so no gvfs to toy with (and I don't feel like 
installing a nonworking app on a working computer)
5) Local copies et al work correctly, yes. Even big files are copied OK between 
other gvfs backends (i.e. trash, burn, ftp...)

The strange thing with this is that _sometimes_ it works and sometimes
it doesn't. A thing, however, that always fails is copying large files
over SMB, even when browsing had previously worked. This might indicate
that gvfsd-smb may have a problem with bulk transfers. Concretely, after
5~10 MiB, the transfer stops and can't even be cancelled without killing
gvfsd-smb. An analysis with Wireshark reveals that it's my Ubuntu box
the one that stopped requesting data, not the Windows box who stopped
serving them, and the last messages exchanged don't reveal anything
special (no errors, etc).
