[josm-dev] Network File Access in JOSM

[Eric Ladner]

Filesystems mounted like that only show up in Nautilus.  They are handled
in the background by the virtual filesystem stuff.

To get it to show up to non-Gnome applications, you'd have to actually
mount it.

sudo apt-get install cifs-utils
mkdir $HOME/server
sudo mount -t //server/share $HOME/server

You'll have to remount it after you reboot unless you create an entry in
/etc/fstab that does it automatically.
