Recommended file manager

I'm looking for a good file manager. I'm looking for one that can browse SAMBA shares and at the same time doesn't rely on too many dependencies (that means file managers like Nautilus). I love Thunar but as far as I'm aware it cannot browse SAMBA shares.

Wasn't sure if this was the correct category but I thought it fit in here better than anywhere else.

Cheers.

Re: Recommended file manager

The only one that I know of that can browse Samba shares like that would be nautilus.

What's wrong with mounting the shares ? Or have you tried "smbnetfs" ? It's in the repos.

Re: Recommended file manager

Thanks. I thought I needed a new file manager to do this. Will try "smbnetfs" out. Thanks again.
