@BloodyIron, please see: https://github.com/christgau/wsdd
I suggest you install as it is a significantly better work-around than constantly killing the daemon. It is intended to be released in the next Debian (bookworm) release as a package, I do not know if Ubuntu will also be including it in their next release. Whether Nautilus will use it or not, I could not answer to that - I have long since switched to using Thunar without any issues. With regards to "If restarting it 'fixers' it, then why on earth does it break in the first place?" I suggest you see one of the replies here: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/-/issues/307 and further reading here: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/-/issues/506 ** Bug watch added: gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/-/issues #307 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/-/issues/307 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1828107 Title: gvfs can't list shares from smb servers that disabled SMB1 Status in gvfs: New Status in gvfs package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: After bug #1778322 is fixed (just needs a gvfs rebuild with newer samba), samba machines will start to show up again in the "windows network" tab in nautilus. But if a server has disabled the SMB1 protocol, nautilus will show an error when that server is clicked on, instead of showing the shares list. Even with SMB1 disabled, it should still be technically possible to get a share list, since smbclient can do it: andreas@nsnx:~$ nmblookup -A 192.168.122.101 Looking up status of 192.168.122.101 D-NO-SMB1 <00> - B <ACTIVE> D-NO-SMB1 <03> - B <ACTIVE> D-NO-SMB1 <20> - B <ACTIVE> ..__MSBROWSE__. <01> - <GROUP> B <ACTIVE> WORKGROUP <00> - <GROUP> B <ACTIVE> WORKGROUP <1d> - B <ACTIVE> WORKGROUP <1e> - <GROUP> B <ACTIVE> MAC Address = 00-00-00-00-00-00 andreas@nsnx:~$ smbclient -L 192.168.122.101 -N WARNING: The "syslog" option is deprecated Sharename Type Comment --------- ---- ------- print$ Disk Printer Drivers pub_no_smb1 Disk IPC$ IPC IPC Service (d-no-smb1 server (Samba, Ubuntu)) Reconnecting with SMB1 for workgroup listing. protocol negotiation failed: NT_STATUS_INVALID_NETWORK_RESPONSE Failed to connect with SMB1 -- no workgroup available andreas@nsnx:~$ smbclient //192.168.122.101/pub_no_smb1 -U ubuntu%ubuntu -m NT1 WARNING: The "syslog" option is deprecated protocol negotiation failed: NT_STATUS_INVALID_NETWORK_RESPONSE andreas@nsnx:~$ smbclient //192.168.122.101/pub_no_smb1 -U ubuntu%ubuntu -m SMB2 WARNING: The "syslog" option is deprecated Try "help" to get a list of possible commands. smb: \> dir .
