If I just use automount features of kde it is somewhat more limited and problematic.
IMHO that's bcause accessing samba shares via smb:// URLs is KDE specific and won't work with all applications.
Since my other box connects fine with no special setup, for the moment I'd like to avoid having to create fstab entries. But in any case, I can't get that far yet. Something just absolutely stands in the way of making a connection in KDE. Doing some DuckDuckGoogling I'm starting to stumble across various posts that suggest this is, and has been, a known problem going back years.
Actually, using fstab would clear your KDE problems, as the connection would be handled externally to it. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
