This don't think this is the typical, "I can't mount a windows share" post.

I am using stock Ubuntu 12.04. I am pretty sure this is a Nautilus issue, but I have reached a dead end. I have one share that I can't mount using smb://server/share via nautilus. I get the following error.

Error: Failed to mount Windows share
Please select another viewer and try again

I can mount this share from other machines(non-ubuntu) using the same credentials so I know I have perms on the destination share. I can mount other shares on other servers from my Ubuntu box so I am pretty sure I have all the smb packages I need on my Ubuntu box. To make thing more interesting, if I use smbclient from the command line, I mount this share with no problems from my Ubuntu box.

So here's what we know:

1. destination share perms are ok (no problem accessing from other machines)
2. smb is setup correctly on Ubuntu box (access other windows shares no problem)
3. I only get the error when using nautilus
4. smbclient in terminal works, no problem

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Googling turned up simple mount/perms issues, and I don't think that is what is going on here.

Let me know if you need more information.
