Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gvfs

When connecting to a DFS share using Nautilus on Ubuntu 10.04, I can
only see part of the directory tree. Take the example of a share with a
DFS root at X, and sub directories A, B, and C all on different servers.
I can connect to X, and see A, B, and C, but directories A, B, and C are
all shown as empty. If I directly connect to X/A, then I can see the
files and directories in and below A.

Using smbclient directly from the command line gives the same behaviour.

I found this from several years ago: http://lists.samba.org/archive
/samba-technical/2007-April/052725.html. It seems to exactly describe my
issue, and suggests that it's because when you cross to another server
in the DFS hierarchy, smbclient re-authenticates (as it's supposed to)
but with the wrong credentials.

I can't find any responses to the above post.
