[Bug 150376] Re: can't browse arbitrary samba shares etc in dolphin

[Peter]

on a network with windows XP and vista machines sharing folders and an Ubuntu samba server sharing folders they are not visible in dolphin from the remote places>samba shares (nor are they visible in konqueror).
The workgroups are visible but dolphin reports a time out if I click a workgroup.
if I enter smb://workgroup again there is a time out
if I enter smb://workgroup/hostname there is a timeout
if I enter smb://workgoup/ip there is a timeout
if I enter smb://ip the shared folders show up
coincidentally (or perhaps not coincidentally) the printer install wizard will not detect shared windows printers but will install them if the ip is given and they then work fine so maybe the problem is in the samba client not in dolphin or konqueror
(is sort of goes without saying that the shared folders all show up on the windows computers)

** Changed in: dolphin (Ubuntu)
       Status: Invalid => New
