Bug#292688: nautilus can't open a smb share on a win2k server

[Greg Orlowski]

Hi Josselin,

I had my friend confirm that SMB/CIFS browsing in nautilus now works
fine with shares on Win2K and WinNT servers even when they require
authentication on an AD network (the specific case that I reported a
bug on before). So yes, gnome-vfs has come a long way since gnome 2.10
and now seems to be quite reliable in gnome 2.14.

best,
-Greg
