Renzo,

Thanks for the reply. I completely missed 54-57 and they helped much. Just
as a note in case someone else runs into this:

I downloaded the source which placed a folder called "gvfs-0.2.5". Then
moved to ~/gvfs-0.2.5/daemon/ folder and downloaded and saved the patched
titled "patch to prefer kerberos, then fall back to password" with the
filename "authent.patch" in the daemon folder.

I ran this command "$ patch <gvfs.patch" and the error I received was"

patching file gvfsbackendsmbbrowse.c
patch: **** malformed patch at line 218: failed */

I then went back to line 218 in authent.patch and apparently it had a NL in
it instead of a line beginning with "+" of course I removed that NL and
saved and the patch went properly. The point was copying and pasting the
line out of the browser may not respect the CR and NL's that the file was
orignially written in so manually touching up the file may be needed.

I then created all the .debs and dpkg -i *.deb 'd them all. I'm waiting
until I move to a network other than my home network to test and see how it
works out.

Thanks again for the push,
John
