There should be no reason to connect to a server called smb by the GUI as the share is already mounted.
Personally, I wouldn't be naming things that way. You end up using names where you expect options, that have the same spelling, etc. It makes for confusing command lines where you're not sure what parameters are being supplied where.
I had a friend who used the same computer hostname as his logon name, and that lead to all sorts of confusion.
Well, I would never name a host "smb" or anything like that either. But, apparently, that is what Bod did as one can see from a post from a different thread were he showed.
[root@smb bobg]# ll /media/dd2 total 0
At that time, I didn't think it was worth the effort to change it. But now...???
