Public bug reported: Hello,
This bug groups a lot of network shares issues. When mounting a share using nautilus: - nautilus never really mounts it, instead it creates a "shortcut" to the share using smb:// protocol - many apps have no access to such a pseudo-mounted share making it useless in a enterprise environment when working on files hosted on that share (ex: gedit, totem, zend studio, wine apps ... ) - free disk space is not available - burning files with brasero is not possible (files exists but have size of 0kb) Tried burning images pdf and .avi: same result When mounting thought fstab - it is far to complicated for an average user or a network administrator (doing such a configuration on all computer in an enterprise wastes time) - I had many problem burning files directly from a such mounted share witch implies to copy the files to local computer to burn them - if a share has a symlink, it is shown has a broken symlink (witch is not the case using a windows computer or the smb:// protocol) - when copying a file, the progress is not shown properly. All that issues just make it a nightmare to work on samba shares. Maybe it is time (Intrepid) to have a rock solid support of mounting/using them to spread Ubuntu a the enterprise level.
