If you're using NFS, and have autofs set up on the client, then you can browse to /net/remote-computer-hostname/exported-directory-name. There's probably something similar for Samba, but I found Samba so irritating that I haven't used it for years (a Windows networking scheme bludgeoned into Linux). Other GUI tools, like the KDE Konqueror, which I haven't used for years, let you use various different protocols to access remote shares, by specifying the protocol before the path, rather like you do in a web browser (e.g. http://example.com/ or ftp://example.com/). I think Samba used the smb:// prefix. If you've mounted the remote share, then you just browse to the mount point for it. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.7.9-104.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Feb 24 19:19:12 UTC 2013 x86_64 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
