connect to server cannot connect to samba server

Can you mount a samba share using smbmount or mount -t smbfs?
If you get error(12): Cannot allocate memory
then this is a problem on the Windows box that has to be fixed in the registry (see: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;177078 )

Thanks for the smbfs suggestion, Andrew.

There is no problem mounting the share with
 > sudo mount //<server>/<share> /tmp/smb/ -t cifs -o username=<user>,password=<password>

There is no Widows-box involved. The share is exported from a server running Karmic.

@Pedro Villavicencio:
What other information do you need?

After upgrading to 10.04 connect to server stopped working for me for ftp (with login). Same problem here with different mount type. When i try to mount some ftp bookmark gvfsd-ftp is taking a lot of resources. If i kill the gvfsd-ftp then i can mount ftp bookmarks without any problems.

I experience the same problem with Nautilus 2.30.0

I also have this problem after an upgrade from 9.10.
Connecting to a windows share worked before, now I get:
DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus)

This error is of major importance so I would like to vote for this to be of higer importance.
I am also running nautilus-2.30.0 on Ubunut 10.04 LTS beta i386.

I solved this issue by

sudo aptitude install gvfs-backends.

it seems that with lucid beta2 this package get partly removed.

With all updates installed (as of today), I still get the error message

Could not open location 'smb://user@server/share/'. DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus).

The error message comes almost instantly, no 100% CPU activity as described in #1. mounting with smbfs works. gvfs-backends is installed and updated.

I guess you see another Bug,

i hadnt that 100% cpu issue.

sorry
