desktop share icons / gnome-vfs

[Brian C. Huffman]

All,

What exactly is the correctly technical way to describe the share icons that are
created on your desktop by the "Connect to Server" menu option?  Is this part of
gnome-vfs?  

I have a smb share setup as an icon on my desktop (presumably through
nautilus-connect-server), but some programs see it and some don't.  For example,
I am using gtkpod to load files onto my ipod, and when I try to import files, it
doesn't see this share.  Other programs that use the gtk chooser *do* see it.

Any assistance?  

Thanks,
Brian
