           Summary: Nautilus requests password for unprotected SMB shares
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: i386
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: nautilus

I am using Breezy Badger (GNOME 2.12).

I've used 'Connect To Server' to add a number of public SMB shares to my Places
menu. As soon as I try to connect to them, Nautilus requests a password, even
though the shares are not password-protected. Clicking 'Cancel' in the
authentication dialog allows me to browse the shares and use them normally.

Also, browsing to the 'Network Servers' location causes multiple authentication
dialogs to pop up, one for each of the non-password-protected shares. Again,
clicking 'Cancel' in each dialog box allows me to see the list of network servers.

This behaviour is familiar to me - it happened in the pre-releases of Hoary as
well as in my former Gentoo GNOME installation (2.8). It was fixed when Hoary
released.
