Looks like an issue in smbfs implementation in mc. AFAIK, the samba library bundled with mc counts no ages. Not only it needs a rework, but it has to be throw out completely and replaced with a wrapper for some well supported samba library. So what are you talking about is entirely possible, although I don't think we can provide you with a solution ATM before the VFS rewrite (which has not even started yet) is completed. -- Sincerely yours, Yury V.

My personal issue with mvfs is that it's basically an unsupported project. It does not even have a website, not speaking about a developer community. Your signature is not up to date, there's no mention of mvfs on the main website that seems to be fallen far behind, nothing... Let's assume that the patch gets into mc pretty soon. Last time you disappeared for half a year or something like that. Who's gonna support this pretty crucial piece of functionality then? No one. Direct bindings to libsmbclient won't suffer from this problem, it's been around for ages and it's very well supported. Unfortunately, it does not seem to matter to you. -- Sincerely yours, Yury V.
