Ah, that’s a slightly different issue. What that post refers to is the fact that samba locations are not automatically displayed at the top level network places menu at login. The fact they are not auto-displayed doesn’t really affect anything since, as soon as you navigate to a samba location it will then display it in the top level network places menu for the rest of a session. Thus, it was more of an irritant than anything else for me that I had to manually navigate to a samba location every time I logged on. That post was describing a way that such locations could all be auto-navigated to (and so auto-displayed in the top level network places menu) on login and remain so for the rest of the session so that the user would not have to manually navigate to them each new time they logged in.
