Public bug reported:

By default, the smb.conf file in Ubuntu sets the name resolve order to:
name resolve order = lmhosts host wins bcast
However, this makes it impossible to access SMB hosts by hostname in 
Nautilus/GNOME in most home networks. Hosts can be accessed only by IP address.
This problem can be fixed by changing the line to
name resolve order = bcast
This probably introduces problems for corporate setups, however.

** Affects: samba (Ubuntu)
