Nautilus: can't browse Samba share after upgrade

Hi,

after yesterdays upgrade I can't browse any Samba share. When I try to point Nautilus to for example "smb:///192.168.1.42", where I have many shares, I get an error window saying "Could not find "smb:///192.168.1.42" Please check the spelling and try again". Anyone knows where's the problem?

Thanks in advance,
Tomas

I get "nautilus cannot handle smb locations.".
Haven't found a solution yet...

Had the same problem, seems like smb support is now provided by gvfs-smb package.

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

Well, his problem looks different then mine... It looks like it can't find the server.

Can you ping the samba server, pasmen ?
