Description of problem: Fedora 9 creates a link under Places and on the Desktop when a Windows' network share is mounted automatically by viewing it through 'Network --> Windows Network -- [Click Share]'. However, after a restart this link is not retained. The user must manually go through the same procedure in order to have access to it. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Select a network share by using Places -> Network. 2. A link is automatically created under Places and on the Desktop 3. Restart the computer. The links will no longer be there. Actual results: The network share links are not persistent between restarts. Expected results: The network share links should be retained after a restart. Additional info: Fedora 9, latest updates as of 29/06/08. This seems to not only be limited to my usage case (windows network shares) as evidenced by this FedoraForum.org link - http://www.fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?t=190590 . Sorry if this is on the wrong component.
Not a samba bug, hope I reassigned to the right component
This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '9'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 9 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-07-10. Fedora 9 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
