           Summary: Digikam does not access files on NAS
           Product: digikam
           Version: 1.9.0
          Platform: Debian stable
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Database
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: johann-w at vonkrause.de


Version:           1.9.0
OS:                Linux

I have most of my picture files on a NAS server, which is part of my LAN.
When I try to add one of the NAS folders via Settings-Configure-Collections-
Network Shares-Add collection I can choose the folder on the NAS cliucking
through the Samba Shares tree. But when I add it, I get the window telling me:
"Problem adding collection. The selected folder does not exist or is not
readable".
How that, if I have just found it with Digikam?

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
The NAS is mounted using a bash scrip with gvfs-mount. It is accessible in
Dolphin. I use the menu steps Settings-Configure-Collections- Network
Shares-Add collection, find and choose a folder on the NAS (I do not want to
have all the picture directories continuously added as collction as that would
probably make the system very slow).

Actual Results:  
 I always get the response that the folder is not readable.

Expected Results:  
I want to b able to add the folders on the NAS as collections.

I am running DigiKam on a Ubuntu Natty Narwhal desktop PC. I am not a linux
guru, and unable to use the workarounds which were described in various forums
for older versions of DigiKam.
