Re: [Users] Connecting to Samba Shares with Ximain

I have the gnome-vfs-extras package installed yet I cannot seem to
connect to my windows smb shares via nautilus2 (I am currently trying
out the gnome 2 snapshots)

I get this error message:

"smb:" is not a valid location.  Please check the spelling and try
again.

I am able to mount the share via smbmount with no problems.

Is this a know bug/issue in nautilus 2?
