Bug Description
Binary package hint: nautilus
We are using Ubuntu 9.10 and Nautilus 2.28.1
Nov, 04, 2009
After recently updating to Ubuntu 9.1 the Public folder file sharing with an iMac running OS-X.5.8 worked perfectly. We moved files back and forth constantly with no problem. However after running Ubuntu's Update Manager yesterday it stopped working. We always update files the Update Manager suggests. The Mac's Public folder seems to connect however none of the file in the public folder appear. When we try to copy a file from the Ubuntu machine to the Mac it returns an error that "Operation not supported by backend."
We also noticed that after selecting the share from the list the Label reads: "Windows Shares on iMac." "Windows shares" were never mentioned before.
We have not changed anything on the network or iMac side. Did something change with the Nautilus network file sharing within the last few days?
Thanks!!

P.S to our comment above. We were using Nautilus to copy the files back and forth not the Mac. After the update Nautilus stopped showing the Mac files. After re-reading what I wrote that did not seem clear. Sorry!
