I tested my configuration using smbclient and, lo and behold, I can see and browse the shares in the CLI, it is just Nautilus that refuses to work. When I access the windows sharves via smbclient I use this: # smbclient //brdc-01/upload$ -U brockley_byrnejb password: <domain user's password> smb: \> ... Now, my question is this: Is their a way to make nautilus ask for a user name and password before trying to connect? Regards, Jim -- James B.
