The triaging thing being new to me (I'm still in the process of reading and
understanding all the guides), I agree this thread is indeed a challenge.

For what it's worth, I've had the same samba share experience once too.
Nautilus didn't deal with the share very well, CLI smbmount was a good
workaround at the time.

Anyhow, I'll keep reading this thread closely. Interesting ;-).
