[Bug 994992] Re: Samba not working in Nautilus

[James Page]

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug in Ubuntu.

I appreciate your frustration when things don't just work but we need
some more information about specifically what is not working for you
about samba/nautilus before we can help resolve this issue.

Please could you describe in more detail exactly what is not working?
Is nautilus failing to contact the windows machines you have on your
network?  is it prompting for a password?

It would also be really helpful if you could follow the instructions for
debugging Samba/Nautilus issues here:

 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSamba#samba-client

and post results back to this bug report.

Marking this bug as 'Incomplete' pending your response. Please set the
status back to 'New' once you have provided the requested information.

Thanks

Title:
  Samba not working in Nautilus

Status in “samba” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 12.04 - clean install

  It`s just imposible, it`s not working. And the internet is full with
  other people asking the same thing.

  I have 6 computers, using the same class of ip 192.168.1.XXX

  3 are windows 7 and 2 windows XP. ALL of them don`t have a password and all of them don`t require one. 
  Hell, all of them i can edit, write, all i want, becaouse they are inside my network.

  But Ubuntu does not care that i made it the most simple of simplest
  way of simplest simplest ways of entering. you have the IP, you just
  search for computers and connect to them. How hard can it be ?

  It looks like imposible hard.

  I want to be able too keep promoting Ubuntu to my friends, but i can
  ncannot do a basic stuff, like accesing a share, i am not able too do
  this. And the internet it`s full with 320948739 variants of how to fix
  this, all in a different way. STOP IT.

  I don`t want to be a geek anymore, i want just too use a operating
  system, not learn 500 pages for every problem that i have.
