Whoa - stop! Comment 9 does not describe Bug 354243 directly, but rather, a related situation. That's what all those words I typed into Comment 9 mean. I had hoped the the additional information would be helpful. I'm sorry it wasn't.
I opened Bug 354243 specifically because of the "confusion" evident in Bug 209520. But the gist of both bugs is this: There is something wrong with Nautilus and/or its dependencies - recent versions of Nautilus are not robust in browsing network shares. I intended, in Bug 354243, to offer a reproducible demonstration of this failure. Comments 1 and 4 outline that demonstration, but again: The network in Bug 354243 is a vanilla router; a vanilla computer; an Iomega MDHD500-N network hard drive, running firmware K1.08 L1.0 W1.5; and an Ubuntu 9.04 beta desktop i386 CD, running in LIVE SESSION. (Sorry to shout, but last is important: live session eliminates user error in configuration, and, more important, live session is supposed to demonstrate Ubuntu's capabilities with a wide variety of hardware.) And I will anticipate the objection that this is an Iomega problem: Windows finds the Iomega NAS; smbclient finds it; smb4k even mounts it - it's not trying to hide itself. The Iomega NAS is just one among many "black-box" embedded SAMBA servers that a robust, desktop-ready file manager needs to be able to browse. Current Nautilus fails. -- Nautilus fails to browse any share on network to which Iomega Home Network Hard Drive (MDHD500-N, firmware K108.W15) is attached. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/354243 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
