Description Gergely Imreh 2008-07-25 11:56:07 UTC 
Version:           0.7.0 (using 3.5.9, compiled sources)
Compiler:          Target: i586-manbo-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.24.5-desktop586-2mnb

I used Showfoto to open a file on a windows network share mounted with CIFS. The share is available for read/write for me, and every other program works fine with it.

When I try to save a modified version of my picture, it comes back with a dialog saying:
<Failed to save file "oldfile" to "newfile">

When trying to do a Save As, at a different location, but still on the CIFS share, it says:
<Failed to overwrite original file>
Conversion to other file format didn't make any difference, and the same thing happens with both PNG and JPEG files that I opened.

Everything works well when saving or saving as to a local folder, or an ntfs-3g mounted partition.

The line of the CIFS partition from /etc/mtab:
//PAFS3/SteaneGroup /mnt/SteaneGroup cifs rw,mand 0 0

I'm using Mandriva 2008.1, the windows share is on a Windows Server 2003 RC2 3790 Service Pack 2.

Rob, 

Any news with 0.10.0-rc1 ? A cannot see any problem to use a mounted remote file system.

With 6.0.0, new Import/Export menus have been add to Showfoto to play with remote repository through KIO protocol.
