Yeah, the whole concept of connected servers is a bit weird in gio/gvfs (as noted on http://live.gnome.org/GioToDo). It was a way to emulate mounts in a stateless word. In gvfs we have *actual* mounts of network shares too that will show up in the volume monitor (and thus sidebars/file selectors, etc). However, we might still want some of the features of connected servers, like a UI for the mount, and something that survives a logout (and consequently the unmount of all network shares in the session). This is all still sort of up in the air. > Filed as bug #509756 [2] > > [1] by the way: > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ gvfs-mount ftp://ftp.gnome.org > Error mounting location: No hostname specified > Any reason? And how mount ftp with login? ftp is not really implemented at all in gvfs. All there is is a empty shell of code.
