Can you recommend an alternative automounter for network mounts?

start nor care to learn how to use that. Which is why I need to install a DE.
Years ago I did use KDE3 and liked it but changed because I did not like KDE4.

Interesting. I just used Xfce for a bit on a new Ubuntu box from a vendor
here today, I didn't check the version. It sure has come a lng way
from when I last used it around 1999. I may try it out on my home desktop,
seems a lot more responsive than KDE and Gnome.

Regarding samba... there's no need to automount samba folders because you
always can browse them via file browser (konqueror, thunar or nautilus),
