I can also replicate the problem by typing smb://buffalo/ibmbackup in
the location bar at the top of Nautilus, which gives the error "The
folder contents could not be displayed. Sorry couldn't display all of
the contents of "ibmbackup on buffalo": Connection timed out", which is
a more likely error than the "no application" one above.

Typing in smb://192.168.0.101/ibmbackup/ prompts immediately for a
username and password, as expected, and then shows the contents of the
share, once that info is entered.
