That means that your SMB configuration is a bit horked somewhere. I have
the same problems on my home network, work's network works fine though.

Browsing to something like smb://servername/ should work though.

The new method doesn't do any caching. This should be fixed at some
point with the gnome-vfs daemon. Will have to wait a bit more still.

PS: I updated the packages on

There were a couple of last minute bugs fixed
