Hello,
Problem:
When I try to open/save a document in another computer (in SAMBA
Network) the LibreOffice (BrOffice 3.3.1 in my case) alerts that this
task cannot be done because I'm trying to save/open a remote file...
Question:
Is there a solution/workaround for this? Is this a bug, or was it
done to act at this way on purpose?
On (plain) ubuntu 10.04 I daily open/save files on samba shares, but
these are mounted at boot (they have entries in the /etc/fstab)... So
you might investigate how they are mounted, but not being a KDE expert
I guess I may be missing some internals (e.g. I know there are some
issues in some applications with gnome virtual file system which
manages shares if you use the 'network' interface etc.)?
On Ubuntu 10.10 GNOME, with the "defaults" of the Network drive
accessing in place:
I can go to a Network/Windows Network/MSHOME/. . . . computer
and the file name and folder info looks like the following
smb://inspiron1525/a---video-projects/ . . . . . . /index.html
[with all the dots replaced by all of the folder/subfolder path]
I was able to open the file in Kompozer, make modifications, and save
it. Of course, I have that "video project" folder on my Vista Laptop
set up so I can copy files to and from it.
So using Ubuntu 10.10 GNOME and its defaults, and with file permissions
to the remote folder, I was able to read the file, make edits, and write
it back to the folder withing an editing package.
So within LibreOffice? The only thing I see is there is no "Network" in
the folder list. I needed to have a network folder saved as a
"bookmark" in my "Places" menu. But once I open a file on the remote
laptop, I can save it to the remote laptop, no problem.
It has to be in your settings, either on Kubuntu or the remote computer.
