Exactly (drwxr-xr-x+) - it's a read-only share, set up by Nautilus.

Here it is:

> Einhängen des Windows-Speichers fehlgeschlagen

It's basically the same for XP: It complains that the share cannot be
accessed.

/var/log/samba is always:

If I disable Guest Access in Nautilus the password dialogue pops up in
Ubuntu and after entering it correctly, I can access the share.
If I cancel the dialogue, the same error message as above is shown.
