It seems you've hit some kind of bug causing SMB shares not to be visible. As many other commenters have pointed out, this *does* work by default, and use of the utility in the Control Center is not necessary, accessing them through KDE or GNOME directly works too (the Control Center tool is just quite useful if you want them mounted conventionally, every time you boot). We'd be happy to try and solve the bug if you file it at http://qa.mandriva.com/ . I second the suggestion to check firewall settings and perhaps try disabling any firewall you have set up temporarily, although this *shouldn't* cause the problem. Thanks!
