Yes - it's called "libfusi". It's the "fuse only" approach for network mounts, thought as a short term cross desktop solution. IMHO gvfs requires gio to become the standard file-management API for the majority of applications, also for KDE. This would be cool, but might take a while. However, the way libfusi manages network mounts, might be a pattern for gvfs: It specifies schemes of required/optional and standard/advanced mountpoint properties and remembers them in a kind of "virtual fstab". > For passwords, well, when executing a mount you pass in a > GMountOperation object where you get callbacks when things like > passwords or answers to other questions are required.

Or will it just be a Gtk+ plugin? _______________________________________________ gnome-vfs-list mailing list gnome-vfs-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-vfs-list
