One more thing to add to the confusion. I can use Nautilus and add shares or printers, BUT I HAVE TO USE THE IP ADDRESS. If I use the Windows name it does not work. It seems like Nautilus (or SMB) can no longer find the PC's under their own name.<br>

This is a known issue with Hardy and there is a bug reported in<br>
Launchpad, I just do not remember the number. Unfortunatelly the<br>
nature of it is still unclear and in addition their do not consider it<br>
a high priority.</blockquote><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><br>

Hardy does mount the remote files system via samba but for some weird<br>
and unknown yet reason Nautilus displays nothing. </blockquote></div><div><br>So this is a problem with Nautilus. I could theoretically use another file manager and everything would work?<br> <br></div><div class="Ih2E3d">

To see your shares<br>
in Nautilus do not use Go To Network button but instead type the path<br>
for you share in the Nautilus Address bar specifying explicitelly the<br>
share name, e.g.:<br>
<br>
smb://remote_host_name/shared_folder_name.<br></blockquote><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><br>
Then Nautilus shows it and you gonna have an icon associated with your<br>
share on your desktop. To avoid typing it frequently you can bookmark<br>
it in Nautilus.<br>
<br>
If you instead want to access the entire drive on Windows, then type<br>
in Nautilus:<br>
<br>
smb://remote_host_name/C$<br>
or<br>
smb://remote_host_name/D$</blockquote></div><div><br>Is there a way to view and access all the shares on the machine at the DFS root?<br></div><div class="Ih2E3d"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
<br>
whatever drive you are accessing. You can bookmark this as well.</blockquote></div><div><br>It's nice to know others are having the same problem. I was convinced I was the one with the problem. I was about to dig into fixing it. I will look for the Launchpad bug and post it here if I can find it.<br>
