Andreas, it looks like to me that smbtree still needs NT1 to list shares, as people harden there servers and disable less secure protocols it will break browsing for shares.
the only way to get the computer listing with non-NT1 that I know of at this point is with MDNS or Zeroconf/Bonjour -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1767454 Title: "Other Locations" does not automatically find Samba servers in Ubuntu 18.04 Status in gvfs: Confirmed Status in samba: Unknown Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: New Status in samba package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Ubuntu: 18.04 clean install Nautilus: 1:3.26.3-0ubuntu4 The actions taken to produce the problem: Click on “Other Locations” in Nautilus. The expected result of these actions: Samba servers to automatically show up under “Networks”. This is the behavior in Ubuntu 17.10 using Nautilus 1:3.26.0-0ub. Also, clicking on “”Windows Network” immediately shows "Folder is Empty". The actual result of these actions: The Samba servers never show up under “Networks” and clicking on "Windows Network" always immediately comes up with "Folder is Empty". Further information: This happens on both machines with a clean Ubuntu 18.04 install. My Ubuntu 17.10 machines still work like expected. I can still manually type in the Samba information in "Connect to Server" and the 18.04 machines connect just fine.
