User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008061712 Fedora/3.0-1.fc9 Firefox/3.0 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008061712 Fedora/3.0-1.fc9 Firefox/3.0 smb protocol handling in Firefox 3.0 is almost non-existent. So it would be very nice if firefox would allow to assign external application (like nautilus) for smb and other supported protocols. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Enter any smb address in address field (like smb://192.168.1.1/) 2.Press "Enter". 3. Actual Results: Firefox 3.0 shows blank page without any reaction. Expected Results: Should show samba shares or give message about not supported protocol or (better) launch external application (must be assigned by user) to view smb.
It is supposed to be possible: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/The+protocol+is+not+associated+with+any+program There is a limitation, though: bug 321306.
