Problems mounting samba share in fstab as disk with Thunar
Well, the title explains most of it, but i really have a need for a network drive on multiple workstations.
Quick specs
Simple samba share that needs to be available as disk on every workstation.
All clients are XFCE and use Thunar.
Problem
When i put the mount in fstab it does not show up in Thunar, using 'x-gvfs-show' it does show up, yet twice. This is unwanted behaviour. Is that a bug or is my code bad?
//10.42.0.1/shared /mnt/network-drive cifs x-systemd.automount,_netdev,uid=1000,gid=1000,x-gvfs-show 0 0 Offline

Re: Problems mounting samba share in fstab as disk with Thunar
What might trip thunar:
you've x-systemd.automount but there's no "noauto" and generally x-systemd.automount somewhat defeats the purpose of an explicit mount trigger (it gets mounted when you access /mnt/network-drive)
wrt the second instance:
is one of them actually the share detected for gvfs-smb rather than the cifs mount?
