I've also notice it takes a LONG time for shares to show up too. Sometimes
they never seem to show up at all with out logging out of the DM and logging
back in again! I wonder if it's an issue with the Nautilus file manager that
Gnome uses by default? I've had it crash on me on several ocasions for no
apparent reason using FC3 and all of the current updates as reported by the
Redhat up2date utility.
