Public bug reported:
This is a wooly problem.
Windows XP clients show the correct machines in the four workgroups +
domains present on our simple (but busy - 60 Windows PCs) 10.0.0.0/24
LAN. Ubuntu feisty herd-3 does not. (nor dapper, for that matter, but
I'm less interested in that)
All OSs show the four 'ad', 'admin','mshome' and 'workgroup' groups.
When browsing into 'workgroup' XP will show over dozen machines. Ubuntu
unhelpfully reports 'Sorry, couldn't display all the contents of
"Windows Network: workgroup"
When launching nautilus from a commandline, I see this every time I try
to reload the 'workgroup' window:
** (nautilus:15711): WARNING **: Hit unhandled case 46 (Timeout reached)
in fm_report_error_loading_directory
Similarly, 'findsmb' reports only 8 machines in total, which is a total
nonsense.
Interestingly, browsing the 'AD' domain group shows all 16 machines
which are correctly registered in the Active Directory.
** Affects: gnome-vfs (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Unconfirmed
