Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.

It could be that samba doesn't have permission to browse the list of
servers under a particular domain here, or is otherwise somehow failing
to enumerate the available servers under a domain.

It isn't clear to me what nautilus is doing to get the browse list from
samba.

To make progress on this bug from the perspective of the samba package,
I think we need:

1. A description of how to reproduce samba failing to get the list of
servers and/or shares, directly from samba in the way that Nautilus does
it that is failing.

2. Somebody who understands this area better to confirm that browsing
domains in your configuration is expected to work, based on how Windows
networking works, rather than this being fundamentally not possible (in
case that is the reason why samba cannot do it).
