Bug Description

Reported in https://answers.launchpad.net/pyneighborhood/+question/170801:

I am using Ubuntu 11.04, I can browse Windows shares using Gigolo and copy files from my fileserver running Server 2008.
Installed 0.5.1 using Synaptic ( the repository is still not updated), and could not browse Windows share ( file manager is Thunar)
Updated to 0.5.4, still cannot browse shares, the error is consistent after rebooting.
When I enter the URL, IP and share name, I get a generic error: TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not subscriptable

ed@whitebox:~/Desktop$ pyNeighborhood

nmblookup -A ipofyourserver

Please fix your /etc/samba/smb.conf, "testparm" is your friend!

Testparm may be my friend, but what am I looking for as the problem - what needs to be fixed ? I was able to create a permanent mount of a remote Windows share ( I edited fstab and the mount is present after reboot). If there was a problem with smb.conf, wouldn't that have showed up when I tried to mount the Windows share?

Testparm checks your smb.conf for syntax and context errors, and these should be fixed before we can take a look at your Problem. If you add a host or share to pyNeighborhood, we make a call to nmblookup (a tool for browsing your network) to retrieve host related informations like workgroup and so on
