I was a fool and made a fresh install of 13.04 64bit on my file server. Also a 13.04 32bit on my laptop. Now I can't even copy small amount of files back to the laptop. It seems to hang after the first file, sometimes after copying directories. This bug is a showstopper!!! This hurts! please somebody who knows how to fix it, just take the time and do it!

Workaround ========== Until gvfs-smb is fixed, use the kernel samba client (cifs) that works reliably, is faster, but needs some terminal commands to get going: # sudo -s # mkdir /mnt/cifs # mount -t cifs -o user=YOUR_SAMBA_USER -o uid=YOUR_LINUX_USER "//SAMBA_SERVER/SAMBA_SHARE" /mnt/cifs It will ask for you password, you can then access the shared files at /mnt/cifs.
