Samba GUI problem

[Dwaine Castle]

I've re-installed FC3T1 4 times in the last few days to try to solve a few
problems.  The first was to try to get rid of the dozens of dependency
issues in up2date that would just not go away.  Now I've just got the howl &
kde stuff pending which seems manageable.

The question that I would like bounce off this group has to do with Samba.
I have a small network behind a firewall router.  I've noticed that I can
not use the GUI tools to open any shares on my XP machine.  I can mount the
shares from the command line and the shares are available to the command
line and to Nautilus(File Browser).  However,  if I try to get to the shares
via Computer->Network... I an see each of the shared directories, but I get
an "application error' when I try to open them.  NFS also works, so I fairly
sure it is not a firewall or security issue.

This is obviously not a pressing problem, but if anybody has any ideas about
what is wrong and/or how I might fix it then I would appreciate the help.
It occurs to me that this may be related to the GUI/GDM update issues and
might just go away in a day or so.

Thank you.
