Description Isaac Clerencia 2005-04-15 08:24:36 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.0)
Installed from:    Unlisted Binary Package
OS:                Linux

When I browse a Windows domain with Konqueror smb:// I can right-click in a machine and
select an option from the menu called "Open Remote Desktop Connection to this machine".

If I click it krdc is opened with a "smb://machinename/" URL, which krdc doesn't like at all :P. I'm not sure if the bug should be assigned to krdc (for not managing or translating smb:// urls to rdp:// ones) or Konqueror (for feeding a smb:// URL to krdc when krdc doesn't support it).

Best regards

SVN commit 563039 by kling:

Handle "smb:/" as well as "smb://" URLs, since both are valid (or at least possible.)

This bug stills seems to exists as presented. I'm using KDE 3.5.8 with krdc. The behavior is the same as listed above. The message that I get after right clicking on the server share "Open Remote Desktop Connection to this machine" is:

After confirming the remote session settings is:

Connection attempt to host failed.

smb://corte-gx-260/ where "corte-gx-260" is the windows machine name

if I connect to the windows machine using the ip address of the machine

rdp:/192.168.0.199

it connects just fine.

The same behavior is also observed in Dolphin.

It would seem that this is a krdc issue with Samba shares?
