If a machine is joined to a samba3 domain, winbind offline logon is enabled and a domain user log on the machine I expect than using nautilus I can access shares that the user has the right without inserting the password again.

In ubuntu 12.04 that seems to work on samba shares but doesn't work on accessing windows shares (I've tried on windows xp and windows 2000 shares). When the user access a windows share nautilus ask for username and password and the authentication using the credential of the current domain user fails even if the credentials are correct (so authentication fails both using cached credentials or manual credentials). Using different domain user credentials all seems to works.

I found no workaround for this bug :((
