Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gvfs

I find Nautilus erratic in it's ability to connect to windows shares on
our lan. Sometimes you get a connection, sometimes not. Once connected,
you're OK. Sometimes when this bug manifests, you get a DBus error
message, then you ignore that, and try again, and you get connected.
Other days, it works first time. See attached error.

How the connection is made.. you get a connection to the share and you
bookmark it. A few days later you try and use the bookmark and you get
this iffy behavior. Sometimes I've tried CTRL to open up the address bar
and then typed in the share name i.e. "smb://server/share". It gives the
same error.

We have 4 laptops running Ubuntu 10.10 on a lan in workgroup WORKGROUP
and we all seem to suffer from this intermittent error.
