I added a comment before. I updated Hardy just a few minutes ago. Now the behaviour re connecting to samba-shares seems to have changed. - When I browse the network (Places/Network) I see the Workgroup, then after clicking that the samba server and after clicking the share. Clicking the share opens a dialogbox where I can enter a userid and a password (also a workgroupname but that does not seem to make any difference). The share then opens, desktop icon is also shown.
But when I choose Places/Connect to server I get a different result. 1.Choose Windows Share from drop down box, and fill in share name and username. click connect. 2. in new dialogbox, fill in password. 3. warning box appears. Can't display location "smb://192.168.2.91/sharename/" and "the specified location is not mounted". A desktop icon is shown however 4. clicking the desktop icon shows a dialogbox to enter username and password (and groupname but again that does nit seem to make any difference). 5. the share opens and a second desktop icon is shown. clicking either icon opens the share. I have a laptop and upgraded from gutsy. the samba share uses security=user. Hope this helps. Although I might be in the wrong forum cause this forum is addressing the security-share setting. Oops. Sorry.
