I/t has had no immediately apparent effect ... But maybe an additional action is required? First a few observations. You indicated you're using your ISP DNS. This means the names of your systems aren't available via normal DNS queries since I doubt you keep your ISP updated on names. So, the fact that doing a "ping smb" and your mention of smb.local is indicating to me that mdns or bonjour is at work when it comes to the GUI of Thunar. I can't replicate the problem so making it more difficult to prove what I think and find a fix. As I said, this isn't a "permissions" issue since you're not getting any "Permission denied" indications. And, you're able to access the share just fine from the command line. > > Does "/dns myhostname" find something like bobg, I kept thinking that was what I should put there, but having been admonished to follow instructions I resisted the urge top do so. No, that has to do with how localhost is resolved. See https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/nss-myhostname.html. OK, now to try something completely different. Again, a bit of explanation. When I had my mount point defined as /media/smb an file icon with the label "smb" shows in Thunar. But, when I change mount point to /mnt that doesn't happen and I need to first go to "File System" and then to mnt to access the share. So, could you unmount /media/smb and then change your fstab to be /mnt and then mount /mnt to see if things are better? -- The key to getting good answers is to ask good questions. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
