The error is present in smbclient as well:

Performing an smbclient -L <machine name> will return all names except
those that are longer than 12 characters. This happens using a windows
XP as server, and another Linux box (debian 5) as server.

Example:

In smbclient 3.3.2 (ubuntu 9.04) doing a smbclient -L machine gives me:

Sharename     Type     Comment
---------------     ------    -------------

disk1              Disk
Documents_sorted_by_order Disk
ThesisStructuresDocuments Disk

But smbclient 3.4.0 (ubuntu 9.10 beta) doing the same gives me:

Sharename     Type     Comment
---------------     ------    -------------

disk1              Disk

So is safe to asume that some bug is present in samba and related
packages (libsmbclient???) don't know what exactly gnome-vfs uses as
backend for samba. (I don't think is a gvfs related bug)

Not really a showstopper bug in home cases, but for enterprise uses,
this is a real problem. Maybe is an upstram bug???
