I am running Kubuntu 20.04 on my laptop. I am accessing several smb shares on different remote servers daily.
My requirements:
- Quick acccess for mounting in Dolphin's sidebar (no mount in terminal via root)
- No auto mount on boot as the shares are most of the time not directly accessible (laptop)
- Do not use the local trash on smb shares (makes no sense for big files and a slow connection)
- This includes no "shift+del" as muscle memory can lead to unintended side-effects
- This also includes no additional delete service in the context menu (I mostly use the keyboard and like clean context menus)
- The shares doe not have a smb trash (hitting
del
should be likerm
)
- Transparent mount for all programs (make them think it is a local file)
My solutions so far
- fstab with
user,noauto
option- works almost as wished but dolphin moves things to trash when hitting
del
( shift+del or the second context menu entry works) - is there maybe a "no-trash" mount option?
- works almost as wished but dolphin moves things to trash when hitting
- auto.fs
- same like fstab
- smb4k
- same like fstab
- kio slaves (by adding the entry in dolphin directly)
works almost as wished but some programs cause a small window with some kind of confirmation for "uploading" a file after altering it
It ssems like
kio-fuse
could help with that but that wont be available for ubuntu 20.04
