Description Stef Bon 2008-09-09 15:53:20 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.1.1)
Compiler:          gcc 4.1.2 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources

Hello,

I've created a construction which adds an "autofs managed network mountpoint" to the homedirectory.

It looks like:

/home/sbon/Global Network/Windows Network/
     Workgroup/
        HostA/
           share1/
           share2/
           share3
        HostB/
           share4/
           share5

This goes completely automatic, the tree is built automatic, the mountpoint is added automatically when a session starts.

Now autofs does allow per share mounting, which means that a share is only mounted when entered.
Now when I access the contents of a "host", I get a list of shares as it should. But now all the shares are mounted, which is not necessary. It would be far better when a share is only mounted when it's accessed.

This comes probably because Dolphin checks the contents with a stat call. This is good when it's the local filesystem, but it would be very good when this is turned of when accessing other filesystems. In this case cifs.

I think this should be re-assigned to kio.

Resetting assignee to default as per bug #305719

Is this still a problem with today's versions of Dolphin and KIO?
