I think someone may be interested in this easy-to-use workaround for Ubuntu 12.10:
1) Install CIFS (no need to replace GVFS, so you can use this only if necessary): sudo apt-get install cifs-utils 2) Create a directory to mount it: mkdir TARGET 3) Mount it for your user: sudo mount -t cifs -o user=YOUR_SAMBA_USER -o uid=YOUR_USER_UID -o gid=YOUR_GROUP_UID "//SAMBA_SERVER/SAMBA_SHARE" timecap Usually the first user in a Ubuntu machine has UID and GUID 1000. There are better ways of doing this permanently, but this is a quick solution if you need it NOW. :-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1075923 Title: nautilus hangs copying large directories from a samba share To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/1075923/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
