Public bug reported:
Hello,
I tried opening remote files (via SAMBA on a Windows XP Professional
CPU) via KIO SLAVES in my Kubuntu distribution and I couldn't open most
of them because a lot of aplcations don't have support for KIO SLAVES
smb:// protocol (and I don't know why - it's a lot more efficient to
access a remote path directly than mounting it with CIFS or something
related...)...
PROBLEM:
Anyway, when I open some files with some specific programs (until now
I've only see this happen with GNOME Mplayer and LibreOffice) via
SMBNETFS mounting filesystem, I have a delay when compared to the CIFS
mounting (to mount via CIFS I used MOUNT.CIFS)... So is this delay
related to the WORKGROUP scan or is it a bug of the program?
SOLUTION:
Use CIFS similar way of mounting remote SAMBA paths on SMBNETFS to speed
it up...
SOME IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
In the attachments there is a XLS file that has some information about
how this delay affected the accessing speed...
Thanks for your attention and help,
André M.
