Hello,
xffm will crash if you have a samba share like this : (which is a very sane and common public share entry)
-------snippet from smb.conf--------------------
[public-ftp]
comment = top secret stealth mission
path = /home/ftp/pub
guest only = Yes
guest ok = Yes
------end snippet from smb.conf----------------
and try to browse to it with any value other than empty/null set in SMB_USER.
Here is the recreation / scenario in details:
1) If I try to browse to this public share with xffm and I DO have an entry env setting (user-name) for the "SMB_USER" env it
will freeze up my entire X session and i have to do the ctrl-alt-bksp. Only way to get un-froze.
2) If I try to browse this same samba public share with xffm and I DO NOT have an entry
in SMB_USER env null/empty it will browse it with no problem.
3) xftree/xfsamba (from xfce3) does not have this problem with same scenario.
My build of xfce4 = 2003 May 22 00:30:00 CST ... did a fresh install of everything at that time
including removing ALL old libraries before rebuild.
I can consistently recreate this crash.
I would send more info on the crash but I am not seeing any errors an any logs to give you.
Peace
Don
