Package: fusesmb
Version: 0.8.7-1.1
Severity: wishlist

Hello,

Configuring the fusesmb is a misery, it does not even provide the mounting 
target directory.

In order to use Fusesmb, create a ~/.smb directory to hold configuration files. 
Then create a mount point (for example ~/smbmount). Once that is done, it is 
necessary to create a configuration file to set the correct fusesmb options. 
That file should be created in ~/.smb. For a complete list of options, see 
fusesmb.conf(5). A sample of a working ~/.smb/fusesmb.conf is below:

Code:
#global options
[global]
; List hidden shares
showhiddenshares=false
; General username
username=<someusername>
; General password
password=<somepassword>
; Connection timeout in seconds
timeout=10
;Interval for updating new shares in minutes
interval=10

If you have a single username/password for a network, the options listed above 
may be sufficient. However, it is also possible to set options specific to an 
individual server within a network. As below:

Code:
; Servers/Share specific settings
[/BOX1]
username=<some-other-username>
password=<some-other-password>
showhiddenshares=true
ignore=false

; Servers/Share specific settings
[/T-42]
username=<yet-another-username>
password=<yet-another-password>
showhiddenshares=true
ignore=true

If you try to do similar thing, mostly it will not work.

and furthermore fusermount will result in some mounting (check mount command), 
and it will give no files into the ~/sambamount

well, fusesmb does not work

Greetings
