Bug#293451: nautilus: Domain option missing in "Connect to Server" for Windows share type.

Package: nautilus
Version: 2.8.2-2
Severity: normal

This report concerns an inconsistency with the contents of different
dialogs providing basically the same function.

If I enter smb://server/share I get a dialog where I can fill in
username, domain and password.  This works perfectly.

However, if I decide to use the way of "Connect to Server" from the
File menu instead there is no way of providing the domain part and
I cannot connect to the server.

A simple fix, for someone with knowledge of Nautilus internals, would
be to simply add a Domain field to the "Connect to Server" dialog
when "Windows share" type is selected.

The network of servers I connect to all run various versions of
Windows 2k or later.

Thanks
