Not sure if this will help, but I've never got nautilus to work happily in that manner with SMB, however, if you hit ctrl+l in a nautilus window it will drop you into the address bar. Now just type smb://192.168.x.x/ and hit enter. It should now show you the available shares for that machine. If it doesn't, in a terminal, type "nautilus" and try again. If you still get any errors, see if it dumps anything into the terminal window and if it does, paste that back to us here. -Matt Daubney -- [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
