Cannot browse the "Windows Network" in Nautilus

thnker · 04-22-2008, 07:19 PM

I'm using Fedora 9 beta on a ppc. When I open Nautilus and go to "network:///", I see "Windows Network". When I double-click that icon, I get an error message which says:

"Unable to mount location. Failed to initialize smb context."

Samba is running and I can see the shared linux folders on this machine from my windows machines. The problem is that I cannot see the windows shares from Nautilus.

Any ideas?

You know you probably should read the rule on posting because you have posted this same topic three times and that kind of frowned on.
