Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: samba

Description:	Ubuntu lucid (development branch)
Release:	10.04

Method:
* Open System -> Administration -> Printing from the gnome panel
* Select New
* Network Printer -> Windows Printer via SAMBA
* Browse
* The workgroup MSHOME is shown. The machine sharing the printer is part of MSHOME
* Trying to Open the MSHOME sub-tree I am greeted with a "Authentication" Dialog box.

When I do the same thing on my Karmic installation it will browse to my
printer.

If I put the same path as in Karmic for the printer in the SMB Printer
box the printer works.
