If I use nautilus to browse a smb share from a samba server, this works
fine.  If I try to browse a share on a NetApp server, this fails with
the error:

"Could not display "smb://netapp/home/ft".
Error: Failed to mount Windows share
Please select another viewer and try again."

However, browsing the same share using Konqueror gives correct behaviour
in that I can browse file, see preview and copy/paste.  However, I am
not able to open the files using with some of the application, e.g.
Xarchive and Kwrite works, but not F-Spot, Gimp, Eye of Gnome.
Openoffice asks for an extra login, but works thereafter...

It's been a while, but I believe "everything" worked in 7.10...
