Bug Description
Binary package hint: kdenetwork
Dolphin does not show any Kubuntu 9.04 fileshares although they are shown on Samba and the samba and kde-fileshare packages are installed and set up. I have 5 computers and run the latest Kubuntu Jaunty 64 on 3, Ubuntu Jaunty 64 on one and Vista on the last . The weird thing is I can see the vista and ubuntu shares in dolphin and nautilus and windows. I cannot see the kubuntu shares.
I filed this bug in the wrong place first. See comments below.
Comment from pfoo
Try running samba using "smbd -i" (you might use sudo). I think you are going to get an error about pid file.
Look into your smb.conf, pid directory is set to file://
In my opinion, this is a bug in kdenetwork-
If you check in kde samba config (kcmsambaconf), tab "advanced" and select "locking", you will notice that if you try to change pid directory the tool wants you to select a file instead of a directory ... So, when kcmsambaconf changes smb.conf (for me, it happened when i passed my security level from user to share) it will add an extra file:// at pid directory line.
If someone could look at this annoying bug ...

Comment from me https:/
Nobody can create shares in kubuntu 64 that appears in dolphin under network. The shares are in samba, but not in dolphin so it cannot be used. It makes kubuntu useless for any sharing any data with other computers which is a very serious problem.

The needless file:// are added in by system configuration-
And it looks like there is missing "%" in line: passwd program = /usr/bin/
It looks like it should be passwd program = /usr/bin/
