Description i.linty 2003-04-22 11:13:25 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:          Linux

This problem is relevant with SMB/NFS fs mounts.
In "fstab" I have:

//SNOOPY/homes  mnt/SNOOPY smbfs user=...,password=....,user,noauto 0 0
                ^
                | No Slash !!!!


this mount the SMB //SNOOPY/homes share in /home/user/mnt/SNOOPY

2 or more user can mount the //SNOOPY/homes in theirs home directory ! This works !
in "mtab" I have:

//SNOOPY/homes /home/userA/mnt/SNOOPY smbfs rw 0 0 
//SNOOPY/homes /home/userB/mnt/SNOOPY smbfs rw 0 0 
//SNOOPY/homes /home/userC/mnt/SNOOPY smbfs rw 0 0 

for umounting i use:
umount /home/userA/mnt/SNOOPY
umount /home/userB/mnt/SNOOPY
umount /home/userC/mnt/SNOOPY


With KDE this do not works ! The icon mount/dismount tools work only if one user is using the share ! If two user are using the share on same PC, the KDE mount tools do not recognize the correct mount point ! I think it use device option of mount command for recognize in fstab if the mount is already mounted, but perhaps is better to use the mount-point option !

I'm available for more info at i.linty@regione.vda.it

I bag your pardon for my poor english !
Kind regards

Is this bug still present in a recent version of KDE, such as 3.5.8?

I think that it is no more relevant because actually mounting remote directory can be done using remote places. Moreover there is no feedback since 10 months. Anyway I've just tried with a test account and it worked from kdf.
