Public bug reported: When connecting with Nautilus to "smb://hostname.lan/" note - not the full path to the samba share, and this is a resolvable ".lan" name handled by the local DNS server - then gvfsd fails, and doesn't send a proper error back to nautilus. This display in Nautilus is simply "Folder is empty"
