Bug ID: 398174
Summary: Automatically mount SMB url's when entered
Product: dolphin
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: henk...@msn.com
CC: elvis.angelac...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
Many programs on Linux do not properly understand accessing SMB directly, this
is solved if you mount SMB to a local location first using a different tool or
command and have CIFS handle this for you.
Having Dolphin create automatic mounts and showing SMB as a drive until the
user unmounts it would make the experience easier to use for the less
experienced user transitioning from Windows who expects programs to work
flawlessly when accessing a network drive instead of having to either enter SMB
credentials in these programs seperately, having to wait for a file copy in the
background or having programs fail to access the location.
