Re: autodiscover of a samba share



close, but not really.

gnome nautilus discovers networks but not shares
by which i mean particular public folders shared
through a certain network - accessible with a single
click from something that in gnome nautilus is
called shortcuts.

if you don't know what i mean here is a little article:
http://www.askbjoernhansen.com/2007/10/27/setup_samba_for_bonjour_networking_with_os_x_105_l.html

so far i've managed to configure avahi so it finds samba shares
through avahi-discovery. but i still do research how to gain
functionality of automounting them in nautilus shortcuts the way its
done after you double click particular samba share what i believe
is mounting a samba share.

That's what actually GNOME nautilus (and I think Konqueror/Dolphin also)
does when you connect to a windows network, it auto-discovers available
resources and you can then click on them without mounting the share in
the usual way but by means of "smb://" protocol.
