Public bug reported: Hi, Connect to Server... doesn't let me connect to my windows share by server name, but works fine by IP address.
The error message displayed is "Couldn't display "smb://buffalo/temp". There is no application for this file type" (see Screenshot- nautilus.png). If I map by IP address, then it works OK. My machine can ping the server by name, so it's resolving it no problem. Can you help?
