           Summary: smb ioslave fails to display workgroup content if
                    workgroup name contains a space
           Product: kio
           Version: 4.4
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: smb
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: K_2005 at goelzer.de


Version:           4.4 (using KDE 4.4.4) 
OS:                Linux

If the name of the samba/windows workgroup contains a space, say "WORK GROUP",
typing "smb:/" in the konqueror bar will still list the workgroup.  However, if
one clicks on the workgroup name or symbol, nothing happens.  Also, typing
"smb://work group/" into the adress bar produces a "Malformed url: smb:/" error
message.

If the workgroup name does not contain a space, say "WORKGROUP", clicking on
the workgroup name lists the machines inside the group.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
on a samba server on the network, change the workgroup to
workgroup = WORK GROUP
then restart nmbd and smbd, wait a bit, then type "smb:/" into the konqueror
adress bar, "Work group" should be listed. Click on it.


Actual Results:  
Nothing happens

Expected Results:  
Clicking on "work group" should show the machine(s) inside the group.

I am not sure if it is legal to have a space inside the workgroup name, but it
works with other linux and windows software without problems.
