I would imagine it's the same way that Samba browsing (is supposed to)
works. Click on Computer in the top panel and select Network. The
reason I say it's supposed to work is because it doesn't work very
well for me. My Slackware box with Samba shares shows up there, but my
other Ubuntu box and my family's other computers don't show up either.
I haven't really needed it yet, so I haven't worked very hard to
figure out why it doesn't work. If I use the "Connect to server"
option in Nautilus and provide the proper credentials, I can connect
just fine. Just no browsing in the Network window.
