Bugzilla – Bug 437780
Nautilus doesn't use Kerberos for authentication to Windows shares when user is logged in via Active Directory
Last modified: 2016-04-15 09:14:19 UTC
How to reproduce 1. Set up an openSUSE system to use Active Directory authentication using YaST 2. Log in to GNOME using your domain credentials 3. Verify that you have a Kerberos ticket by opening up Terminal and typing in "klist". 4. Browse the network. 5. Find a server on the same domain and connect to it. Expected Results: You should see all shares accessible to you, and be able to open and manipulate them without any password prompts Actual Results: You are prompted for a username/password/domain prompt.
The upstream bug for this is: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=524485 It looks like the upstrea patches are working well now. They've been tested by multiple people. I'm going to apply the nautilus, gtk and gvfs patches.
After more testing, I've concluded that the GVFS patch seems to break browsing on some non-AD SMB setups. I'm holding it back until I can investigate some more.
I've only submitted the Nautilus patch for now.
I submitted two of the GTK patches for bug #445362.
I submitted the GVFS patch in the end, since it seems to work for everyone else. Misconfigured SMB environment on my end?
Looks like the GTK+ patches never made it into the distro for some reason. At least I don't have them here. Exciting. This is what I submitted: ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Dec 4 22:28:40 CST 2008 - hpj@novell.com - Added gtk2-filechooser-mount-parent.patch (bgo#524485 bgo#545980 bnc#437780). - Added gtk2-filechooser-network-browsing.patch (bgo524485 bgo561494 bnc437780). - These patches from upstream fix a constellation of bugs leading to a lack of arbitrary URI support in the GTK+ file chooser.
Federico, could you close this once you've fixed the file chooser bugs (likely the same problem) you were working on?
Created attachment 265338 [details] gtk2-filechooser-network-browsing.patch
Created attachment 265339 [details] gtk2-filechooser-mount-parent.patch
This changelog is already in for SLE 11 and factory, it just didn't make RC2 and was stuck on review in G:F for a while. We should ship this fix to 11.1 along with Federico's fix.
For the record, this bug is also widely covered in Ubuntu and Mint forums - as a workaround you can install SMB4K, which will show you all the shares no problem.
Oops, I forgot to submit these patches to 11.1. Doing so now...
Submitted with submitreq id 6708 for openSUSE:11.1. Anja, could I please have a swampid for this? This is a couple of patches from SLE-11 that didn't get put in 11.1. I wonder if I can combine them with the same request I made yesterday on bug #355402 :)
Submitted for 11.1.
we still need a working submission for 11.1.
Submitted with submitreq id 7765.
