Just to clarify, I'm _not_ referring to an SMB share that has been
mounted to a local mount point (e.g. via an entry in fstab, or via the
"mount" command) - I'm only referring to remote directories accessed via
a path in Nautilus that starts with smb:// (or ssh://, or ftp://). The
following steps might be a better way to reproduce the problem -
provided you can ssh to your local machine:
* Open a Nautilus window and press ctrl-L to focus the path
* Enter a path of "ssh://[EMAIL PROTECTED]" - replacing "username" as
appropriate
* Enter your password when prompted, and tell it to remember the password until
you log out
* You should now be looking at the filesystem of your local machine, but
accessed via ssh
* Navigate to a directory in which you have full access rights (e.g.
/home/username)
* Right click, select an option from the "Create Document" menu, then edit the
document and save it - in other words, verify that you do have rights to create
and edit files via that window
* Now open a second Nautilus window and navigate to a directory containing an
archive of some sort
* Double-click on the archive to open Fileroller
* Drag a file from Fileroller into the first Nautilus window (the ssh window).
You will be prompted to allow access for Fileroller, which you should then
accept ("Allow once" or "Always allow")
* The file is _not_ created at the destination
If you were already doing something along these lines, then please leave this
until someone else confirms the problem - but if you were extracting to a SMB
share that has a real local mount point, it might be worth trying these steps
instead to see if you can more easily reproduce the problem.
