Description Oliver Hoogvliet 2003-09-26 16:43:47 UTC
Version:           3.1.1 (using KDE KDE 3.1.1)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
Compiler:          gcc (GCC) 3.3 20030226 (prerelease) (SuSE Linux) 
OS:          Linux

When getting access to a directory under MS Windows (every version) computer with smb protocol it is possible to hide that directory by adding an "$" after the smb directory name (---> i.e. //myserver/mydir$).

I used the following URL to mount that directory: smb://user@myserver/mydir$ 

This was the error message: smb://nt-verlag.mopo.hh/online$/ICON_ does not exist

So I tried to escape the $:  smb://user@myserver/mydir\$

This try was answered with: 
Internal error [...] Unknown error condition

To ensure that my connection works I successfully use the following command:
smbclient //myserver/mydir$ -U user

This worked fine. It would be nice to have this functionality under konqueror too.

Thanks
Oliver
