Hello,
I want to write a little script, placed in /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/
When network-manager gets an event, it launch scripts that were placed
there. I wanted to manage a sort of automount : I ping a server
(specifying a short timeout to my ping command). If it succeed thant the
share is mounted with GFVS.
The problem is : these scripts are launched by root. And being root I
can't use gvfs-mount (I get some errors). I tried :
su - user -c "gvfs-mount mount_point" but it don't work (it seems
gvfs-mount dont take care about su).
-> do someone have an idea about either :
- using gvfs-mount to mount as root a share to a user
- if gvfs-mount can't be used like that, is someone know a way to
do a sort of automount well integrated with gnome/network-manager?
My situation and final purpose is :
I move a lot with my laptop and I change a lot of subnets. I also use a
lot the sleeping mode so tricks with a script launched by the starting
process of the gnome session don't interest me. So I want some defined
share to be connected automatically when I'm in the right subnet/place.
Thank you a lot,
nm
ps : I see probably a way to do it with an application launched at the
session startup and go to background as a daemon (and so launched with
the user permissions). Linked with d-bus to received network event. And
do the same thing than above (ping and gvfs-mount). But this is a little
complicated for the purpose I want to do I think. And bash is my friend ;)
