The GVFS stores all metadata privately, so metadata is available only on the machine. However, GVFS tracks mounts and removable media as well. Notice the differences between particular gio info calls and data persistence after a move or rename note the gio info command output :. A typical GVFS mount authenticates on its activation unless the resource allows anonymous authentication or does not require any authentication at all.
When you select the persistent storage, the password is stored in the user keyring. The password is encrypted and automatically unlocked on desktop session start using the password provided on login. For protecting it by a different password, you can set the password at the first use. It allows removing individual records or changing passwords.
The credentials dialog appears asking for a user name, password, and password storage options. Back ends in GVFS provide access to a specific type of resource. The following is a list of available GVFS back ends and their specifications:. Some back ends are packaged separately and not installed by default. For installing additional back ends, use the yum package manager. Virtual back end consolidating active mounts and physical volumes.
Acts similarly to a signpost. Previously used by Nautilus for its Computer view. WebDAV client, including secure variant. Authentication is possible only during mount. The back end does not support later re-authentication on per-folder basis. Supports passive transfers by default. Also, handles secure mode over ftps explicit mode and ftpis implicit mode schemes. Provides access to Google Drive. The Google Drive account needs to be configured over Gnome online accounts.
Handles all HTTP requests; useful for easy downloading files from web in client applications. The back end supports error injection. The gvfs-fuse service is provided as a fallback for non-GIO clients.
Since gvfs-fuse runs automatically and it is not recommended to start it by yourself, try logging out and logging in, if gvfs-fuse is not running. If gvfsd-fuse is still not running, start the gvfsd-fuse daemon:. Now, the FUSE mount is available, and you can manually browse for the path in your application. If your flash drive is not visible in Files , but you can see it in Disks application, you can attempt to set the Show in user interface flag in Disks.
Sometimes, you might see unknown or unwanted partitions when you plug a disk in. For example, when you plug in a flash disk, it is automatically mounted and its volumes are shown in the sidebar.
Some devices have a special partition with backups, or help files which you might not want to see each time you plug in the device. There are number of situations in which the client is unexpectedly and unwillingly disconnected from a virtual file system or a remote disk mount and is not reconnected automatically.
You might see the error messages in such situations. Several causes trigger such situations:. If you receive a notification about your disk being busy, determine the programs that are accessing the disk.

Note that in the first case ls was being run by root, which does not have access to the. In the second case, the ls was run by a non-root user, presumably user2, which does have access to its own.

When the ls command run by root issues a stat 2 system call to get the information for that directory, the call fails with EPERM permission denied.
