Title:
nautilus hangs copying large directories from a samba share

Bug description:
Problem
=======
Copying files to and from samba shares (this includes Windows shares) is
unreliable in Ubuntu 12.10 and Ubuntu 13.04 when using nautilus' integrated
samba client (gvfs-smb): The copy randomly hangs after a few files or a few GB.
Workaround
==========
Until gvfs-smb is fixed, use the kernel samba client (cifs) that works
reliably, is faster, but needs some terminal commands to get going:
# sudo -s
# mkdir /mnt/cifs
# mount -t cifs -o user=YOUR_SAMBA_USER -o uid=YOUR_LINUX_USER
"//SAMBA_SERVER/SAMBA_SHARE" /mnt/cifs
It will ask for you password, you can then access the shared files at
/mnt/cifs.
