I just tried with my build from the ppa, but it's not working. When enabling debugging in gvfsd, I can see it setting the protocol to NT1:
network: Added new job source 0x559ce1b3e070 (GVfsBackendNetwork) network: Queued new job 0x559ce1b4cab0 (GVfsJobMount) smb-network: g_vfs_backend_smb_browse_init: default workgroup = 'NULL' smb-network: Added new job source 0x564f06543070 (GVfsBackendSmbBrowse) smb-network: Queued new job 0x564f06549ac0 (GVfsJobMount) smb-network: Error resolving “EXAMPLE”: Name or service not known smb-network: Forcing NT1 protocol version smb-network: do_mount - URI = smb://EXAMPLE That message, "Forcing NT1 protocol version", comes from the gvfs patch and confirms that it is using the new smbc_setOptionProtocols() call. If somebody else wants to try in the meantime, the packages for bionic are at https://launchpad.net/~ahasenack/+archive/ubuntu/samba-browse- nt1-1778322/ -- 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/1778322 Title: gvfs-smb-browse can't browse samba/smb tree Status in gvfs package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in samba package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in gvfs source package in Bionic: Triaged Status in gvfs source package in Cosmic: Triaged Bug description: * Impact On Bionic Beaver 18.04.1 gvfs-smb-browse can't browse smbtree because of that Nautilus displays "Empty Folder" when clicking "Windows Network" * Test case Try to browse a smb share from a bionic client * Regression potential Check that smb browsing/mounts still work as they should --------------------------- Nautilus should show smbtree nad host on the smb network.
