I just installed the desktop version of Ubuntu 11.10 on my 2nd computer.
Right after the install I tried to access the samba shares (my main purpouse
for installing ubuntu).
I have two computers who share and both of them was listed as computers in
Nautilus.
Nautilus did not however list my router with USB that also shares through samba.
One of the machines runs Openelec (linux dist) and I could access that by
doubleclicking it and I saw it's shared folders.
I could also navigate into windows shares but I could not access my workgroup
there.
So I upgraded all of the packets after installation (245) and now after reboot
it asks me for password every time I try to access the workgroup. It works fine
if I actually write the path to the machine and the folder, no problems no
password. But if I want to list it then I have the same problem as everyone
else.
Also now the only machine I could access the shares from asks for SSH-login
instead in nautilus...
As you can see from my smb.conf I have tried alot of the things in this thread
and it won't work.
mawox@woxnet-nas:/etc/samba$ testparm -s

Title:
Gvfs keeps asking for password when trying to mount Samba share
Status in GVFS:
New
Status in “gvfs” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
Binary package hint: nautilus
My Ubuntu Desktop (9.10, 64-bit) VM can't connect to my Windows 7
(64-bit, Ultimate) File Share using Nautilus. I enter
"smb://<comuterName>" in the address bar and then it comes up with a
password dialog (see screenshot) and then after entering the correct
login info, the dialog disappears for a second or two but then
reappears again. The dialog always comes back up and the share is
never mounted.
* Connecting from an XP box on the network to the windows 7 share works
just fine.
* Connecting from the Ubuntu machine to the windows 7 share using the
appropriate 'smbmount' command works just fine.
* Connecting from the Ubuntu machine (using the nautilus GUI) to the XP
box (password protected) works just fine.
* Then I turned off password protection in Win7, rebooted the win7
machine, and still all of the above tests turned out the same. And the Ubuntu
machine still doesn't connect to the windows share using the nautilus GUI, and
still displays the password dialog even though no password is required anymore.
* I tried using smbclient to view the shares, here is the output (not
sure if I should be trying something else using the smbclient program):
o eddie@eddie-ubuntu:~$ smbclient -L eddie-win7
Enter eddie's password:
session setup failed: SUCCESS - 0
