My users are also affected using Ubuntu in corporate network. More than a year with no movement? I'm surprised it's in wishlist, it's quite serious usability bug.

I found a solution using symbolic links: mkdir $HOME/NetworkFS ln -s $HOME/.gvfs $HOME/NetworkFS Then you can use $HOME/NetworkFS to access your network place.

[Bug 697440] Re: Can't save files over the network using applications that don't use GVFS
I see this bug is marked as Wishlist. Judging this from an enterprise point of view (or corporate environment, like Alexandr wrote): This wishlist item stops us from deploying Ubuntu/Gnome/Unity on our desktops on a larger scale at the moment. We deployed some desktops with Ubuntu 11.10 and the two main applications used on the client side are Firefox and Libreoffice. We have a Samba setup where most of the user files (documents etc.) are saved on a Samba share (which is visible to Nautilus through GVFS). Not having an easy way for the user to download a file from Firefox to their share directly or upload it from the share to some intranet side breaks the workflow of most users. I tried to circumvent the problem by using symbolic links to the ~/.gvfs directory but this disturbs many users because in Nautilus they can access the share through Network or Bookmarks. Is there perhaps an easier and more user-friendly work-around for this bug? Otherwise I wish the status of this bug would get more attention. Funny thing is, on Windows I can tell the users to just use drive M: for their own files. Althoug I hate drive letters, I have yet to find such an easy way to teach users with Gnome ;-) (BTW, Libreoffice also had problems with GVFS but I can't find a bug number at the moment.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to brasero in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/697440 Title: Can't save files over the network using applications that don't use GVFS To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/audacity/+bug/697440/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Hi! Any progress regarding this bug? Why the importance is set as Wishlist? It's a very usual situation especially in a corporate environment, that files are stored on the share and it's a real problem, that you can't save a file from the to a network share. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to brasero in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/697440 Title: Can't save files over the network using applications that don't use GVFS To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/audacity/+bug/697440/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
