WORKAROUND 2:

I've found out that LibreOffice needs a CIFS mounting to work on a
remote file... NAUTILUS does it automatically when I try to open a path
... But DOLPHIN (Default File Manager of KUBUNTU 10.10) don't... So is
this a restriction of LibreOffice? Because in my Open Dialog (in my
Kubuntu Desktop) I have the option to directly (without the need of CIFS
mounting) access SAMBA shares (In Ubuntu I don't have such option)...
And OpenOffice allow this type of opening (directly - without the need
of CIFS mounting - access SAMBA shares) together with CIFS mounting
opening procedure...

QUESTION:

Am I forced to mount via CIFS (in /etc/fstab) all my network to be able
to work on documents, presentations and etc via LIBREOFFICE?

BEST SOLUTION FOR EVERY DESKTOP EDITION:

Modify LibreOffice code to allow it to access directly (without the CIFS
mounting) a SAMBA Share and open a remote file...

IMPORTANT NOTE:

What I've noticed too is that OpenOffice 3.2.1 does such handling (it
open CIFS mounting and directly SAMBA Shares, remote path)... So, if
both programs have come from the same origin (LibreOffice was done by a
group that came from OpenOffice group), can you guys open the source
code of OpenOffice and "translate" this part to LibreOffice?

Thanks for your help,

André M.
