    Exclamation Suddenly can't browse Windows Network with Nautilus

    Suddenly having trouble browsing the Windows Network with Nautilus.

    I can still mount a windows/samba share with cifs, but I don't want to do this because symbolic links within in the share do not work correctly. I can still browse the share with smb:// in a web browser.

    When double-clicking "WORKGROUP" under Windows Network, I get a long pause and then this error message dialog:

    Unable to mount location
    Failed to retrieve share list from server

    Post your /etc/samba/smb.conf file. Also, what
    other computers do you have?
