launch nautilus on samba folder from remote host

[80aless]

Hi,
this might be an easy one for you:
I log in a remote host ("remote") from my local computer("local"), and I want to open nautilus in "local" on the path where I am in in "remote"

ssh to the local works, I did the ssh-keygen and ssh-copy-id story.
Launching nautilus via samba works as well:

local:~$ nautilus smb://RemoteServer/UserNameRemote/path/to/folder &

but

remote%  ssh -X UserNameLocal@IPaddress " nautilus smb://RemoteServer/UserNameRemote/path/to/folder &"
Initializing nautilus-share extension

Opens nautilus in my local my ~/ folder with the following pop-up:

 Couldn't display "smb://hardy.few.vu.nl/amarin/080828rec/090129lhcii/fit".
Nautilus cannot handle smb: locations. 
  

What am I doing wrong?
Cheers,
Alex

Are you running this command on the remote machine?

remote%  ssh -X UserNameLocal@IPaddress " nautilus smb://RemoteServer/UserNameRemote/path/to/folder &"

It looks like you are running a command on the remote machine to run a command on your local machine?

When you show remote% is that the ssh command prompt from the remote machine?

Yes, remote% is the remote machine. Exactly, I want to run a command on the remote machine to launch nautilus on the local machine.

Try this:
ssh -X <remote-server>
#$ dbus-launch nautilus --no-desktop

You should be able to user all the nautilus connect modes. smb:/// ssh://, etc.
