KDE-Forum.org

I recently did a fresh install of RedHat EL4-U2 so I could cleanly move to KDE. During the install process I chose the 'install everything' option. KDE 3.3 was originally installed and I have since updated to 3.4.3.

My problem is very simple. I cannot browse my network using Konqueror.

When I open Konqueror, under Go menu select Network Folders, four icons appear - Local Network, Network Sevices, Samba Shares, Add a Network:

[list]Clicking on Samba Shares folder immediately produces an error dialog box saying: The file or folder smb:/ does not exist.

Clicking on Local Network folder displays icons with IP addresses. If I click on one and then the subsequent SMB folder, it produces an error dialog box saying: The file or folder smb://192.168.x.x/ does not exist.[/list]

I have installed smb4k as an alternative and it works perfectly. I can browse any system on the network, edit, move, copy files, etc. So my samba setup seems to be working just fine.

But Konqueror is not working. Why?

Please help...

Well, a simple apt-get dist-upgrade did the trick. It happened to update some samba files. Konqueror now works perfectly for network browsing.
