Comments on Browsing the Windows network with your linux machine with automatic mounting and discovery of all hosts and shares.

An attempt to complete automatic discovery and mounting of SMB (Windows and Samba) networkshares For some time I've been looking for a good way to let my computer discover the Windows network and other networkservices like SSH and FTP and mount shares on demand. After trying the kioslaves in the desktop of my choice (KDE) and the FUSE programs Fusesmb and SmbNetFs, I was not really satisfied. There had to be an way to let my computer discover all the workgroups/domains, the hosts and the shares, and mount a share on a hosts on demand.This contruction does that exactly, for the networkservices SMB ("Windows Neighboorhoud") and SSH. Support for FTP is underway.
