I've got that entry, and I only see 'New Server' and the 'Network
neighborhood' icons. And I've got fam installed. I've got:

$ ls ~/.gnome2/vfolders/network/
1042441711-ftp.gnome-db.org.0.desktop  1042718711-lagun.0.desktop
1042634541-ftp.gnome.org.0.desktop     1043658941-lagun.0.desktop

which I imagine are the entries for the servers I've added. But none of
them show up. What is wrong with my setup?
