Here are the bug reports that seems to be causing all the fuss in Ubuntu:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/209520
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/207072
It appears that the gvfs package is what is causing all of the problems.
The exact problem we were having was that under Gnome, browsing the network
(Places->Network->Windows Network) we could see the shares, but trying to access them
would either lock up the Nautilus window (had to be force quit and to see the computers
again we had to restart samba) or it would just display an empty folder. Mounting the share
manually on the command line worked. Using KDE worked. Opening Nautilus, File->Open
Location->smb://server/share worked! Just we could not browse through Nautilus.
This particular problem has been around since the Hardy alpha release so there
are plenty of bugs and forums posts.
At least to me, it sounds like what you have posted is similar to the problems
we had/Ubuntu Hardy has. Are you using gvfs? Does this sound like your problem
to you? Or am I just way off? :-P
Good luck and have fun!

I'm afraid it's not related. In my situation I can connect to a share
(ie with File/Connect To Server or with Ctrl-L
smb://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/share_name), I'm asked about the password and it
connects. Then when I browse folders it slows down and after few folder
- expands it hangs. Then I can only force close nautilus; it closes all
its opened windows and reopens one, but then I cannot connect to a
windows share until I logout/login.
I'll file a bug then.
Thanks for you help,
