Can only connect to file server on second attempt
- by Ross Fleming
I have a FreeNas file server on my local network and I usually connect to it from Windows and Ubuntu computers.
Ever since I have upgraded from Ubuntu 12.04 to 12.10 Ubuntu will only connect after a second attempt. By which I mean, I will browse to it via the file manager and once I click on the link in "Bookmarks" it complains that it could not connect. If I then try again it connects successfully and will keep up it's connection until the laptop is suspended or looses connection to the LAN for whatever reason.
This isn't much of a problem as I don't mind having to click twice but my real problem is that this means that my scheduled backup will complain that it cannot connect to the storage device if it has not already been accessed during the current session.
If there is some way to either stop the issue all together or to force the backup tool (default) to immediately have a second attempt at connecting.
