gvfs-mount not working from command line (Fedora 11 x86-64)
When I access a samba share from command line using gvfs-mount, I can not see anything in ~/.gvfs/ directory. See below:
Code:
ajitabhp:$ gvfs-mount smb://iomega-dstore/music/
ajitabhp:$ echo $?
0
ajitabhp:$ ls -l ~/.gvfs/
total 0
ajitabhp:$ ps -ef|grep gvfsd-smb
ajitabhp 10896     1  0 11:28 ?        00:00:00 /usr/libexec/gvfsd-smb
--spawner :1.1 /org/gtk/gvfs/exec_spaw/8
ajitabhp 10901  2689  0 11:29 pts/0    00:00:00 grep gvfsd-smb

But when I use Nautilus or "Places->Connect to server" i can access the share as well as I can see the mount under ~/.gvfs (see below):
Code:
ajitabhp:$ ls -l .gvfs/
total 0
drwx------. 1 ajitabhp ajitabhp 0 2009-12-03 11:17 music on iomega-dstore

There is no user-id/password associated with shares. Any ideas why the command line does not work?

This will not work though if gvfsd and gvfs-fuse-daemon are not running in the background.

Have you check this?

Yes the daemons are running. Actually, I got it working. It seems to be an issue with fedora 12. Its working without any special efforts in OpenSuSe 11.2
