    Hello, I'm using Smb4K since more than 10 years and it works great !
    But now I'm experimenting a little issue and have not found any solution in the web yet.
    I'm using RosaLinux with KDE 4.14.13 and Smb4K 1.2.1 (the community last update version)

    Smb4K is configured to automatically mount shares on startup, it is invoked in KDE Autostart folder by simply /usr/bin/smb4k command and everything works fine, smart, and great like a charm! It is the best CIFS-client I have found!
    But - sometimes - I have to shut down my PC by a root cronjob (with /sbin/shutdown -h now) and this is the problem:
    When I start the PC at the next morning (with KDE autologin to my user account), the shares are not mounted and I have to open the Smb4K interface (it is started as the tray icon, this part works) and have to double click the shares again.
    Any solution? I'm doing something wrong? Is there a workaround for this?
    By the way... are there some config files for Smb4K where the automount-shares are listed? I have not found anything. ~/.kde4/share/config/smb4krc is the only thing I found, but it remains the same, even at normal startup (with my shares automounted) and after root-shutdown (without the shares mounted).
    Many thanks for your support,
    with kind regards

      Thank you for reporting this issue. I do not have a workaround for you at the moment. I need to look into this.
