Now this is just getting frustrating.  Every single FC2 system I have
has been unable to browse the network using Nautilus.  Have had no
problems using FC1.

When I launch "Network Servers" I get a Windows Network icon after a few
seconds.  When I select that icon I get a window but nothing is listed. 
I expect to see a list of all the servers on the network.

Have waited almost an hour now and nothing new has shown up on the one
system in nautilus.  

Would you mind sharing relevant portions of your smb.conf?  Or is there
another config file for nautilus that needs to be setup for this to
work?

Other methods can be used to access samba type shares from FC2 boxes. 
(smbclient, fstab)
