[Solved]Thunar gvfs-smb - How to set mount options?

I connect to my smb server in Thunar with smb:// and have saved it as a bookmark. Works properly.
Now, how can i change the mount options individually per bookmark? Or how can i check the currently used ones? I want to set things like 'rsize=,wsize=,cache=none'.
'gio info' doesn't help.

Any ideas?

$ gio info /run/user/1000/gvfs/smb-share\:server\=192.168.1.1\,share\=myhost/
display name: myhost auf 192.168.1.1
edit name: /
name: /
type: directory
size:  0
uri: smb://192.168.1.1/myhost/
local path: /run/user/1000/gvfs/smb-share:server=192.168.1.1,share=myhost

Re: [Solved]Thunar gvfs-smb - How to set mount options?

Thunar's smb protocol makes use of gfvs/samba and not of the in-kernel cifs implementation, so these options that are for the kernel module are meaningless/invalid in that context anyway.

Not sure whether you can relevantly configure this anywhere else, man page of e.g. smbclient doesn't mention any options into that direction.

I think i will drop fuse gvfs-smb and use a script instead triggering kernel based mounts on-demand.

Thanks!
