I don't think this ever worked particularly well. "ftp" should probably be in the blacklist of protocols that shouldn't operate in pull mode, like http is already. </blockquote><div> now it makes sense, thanks for the help Tim. I was thinking on something related to that, put i didn't realized the pull mode thing. </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> But in any case, you should really use giosrc instead. gnomevfs and hence gnomevfssrc are deprecated. </blockquote><div> we are trying, but we had some issues installing gio support on our development machines (i remember that was something about the daemons, it simply didn't worked), and gnomevfs support was quite easy to install and almost all the time it works :-), but i had lost so much time with gnomevfs that now i see why we really should put some effort on moving to GIO. </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Cheers -Tim </blockquote><div> Best regards, Katcipis </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel&#174; Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
