Description John Browne 2003-01-20 21:59:50 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.0.99)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          gcc 2.95.3 
OS:          Linux

Lisa URL redirection only works for FTP and HTTP.  SMB and FISH redirection is broken.  For example, browsing the network with lisa, and clicking on the SMB folder should redirect the url lan://localhost/ipaddress/SMB to smb://ipaddress however it does not work.  The redirection never occurs and the user is presented with an empty window instead of a listing of the network shares on ipaddress.

The XFree86 output from the console shows the following:

kio (kiojob) WARNING Listjob: Redirection from lan://localhost/192.168.0.1/SMB to smb://192.168.0.1 REJECTED!

FISH exhibits a similar behavior.  Problem appears to be kdelibs related.

I've done bit of code-hunting. This appears to be related to the 
KApplication::authorizeURLAction call added in kdelibs 3.1. That call disallows 
redirection from lan://* to anything other than http://* and ftp://*. 
 
A new rule allowing a redirection from lan://* to anything would solve the problem, I 
think. Or maybe a better solution.

While the problem isn't fixed by default, you can work around it by using this. 
 
Open your $KDEHOME/share/config/kdeglobals. Add these lines at the end: 
[KDE URL Restrictions] 
rule_count=1 
rule_1=redirect,lan,,,,,,true 
 
Save the file then run the following: 
	dcop kded kbuildsycoca recreate 
 
You should be set to go and be able to browse any redirection from lan:/ 
 
Please report if the solution doesn't work.
