mount windows share

[David Hláčik]

Hi,

thank you all very much for answers!

Yeah, so i will do it manually, i was just really curious, how-come that
Places - Connect to Server in gnome does not work, but as i can see, problem
is that this is not implemented or something. It is working to some one?

Thanks in advance!

David
