how to get nautilus to show network drives in awesome

Hey all,
I am running awesome window manager. It is aptly named, however, i seem to be having a problem with nautilus not being able to see samba or nfs shares on my local network.
When in gnome, i can see the network just fine, but in awesome, i get an error code. So, i am thinking that when i log into gnome, it starts some kind of service.

I guess my question is., is that service available in awesome?

thanks

What package contains the gnome-session-daemon?

I already installed gnome-session but can't find it.

He means gnome-settings-daemon, but it sounds like a dbus session issue to me.

Here's what I have in ~/.xinitrc in order for Nautilus to behave with ssh/ftp shares:

# DBUS Session for nautilus, etc. 
if which dbus-launch >/dev/null && test -z "$DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS"; then
    eval `dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session`
fi

PS: It'd help if we knew exactly what the error code was.
