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???
