FWIW, I did a clean reinstall of 8.04, did the latest updates and used the 
latest maintainer version of samba.conf
I am a Ubuntu newbie and the inability to access password protected shared 
folders in a Windows network is a HUGE disappointment in this release which is 
otherwise very nice.
I have tried Places/Connect to server yet I get a "cannot mount error" . I 
don't even get the "double icons" on the desktop!
I have tried smb://server IP/share and also can't access the folder. 
If the folder is not password protected I can access it
For the best experience, simply browsing the Windows network should show
up the shares but it is a blank for me as well.

Sorry to whine but I do hope this bug gets fixes asap as it will put off
a lot of people thinking about migrating from Windows.
