rdesktop stats all /media dirs when copying files

[darren]

Binary package hint: rdesktop

I have a few SSHFS FUSE mounts in /media (along with CIFS and NFS mounts)

If the SSHFS connection has dropped then I can reconnect by trying to access the dir e.g. ls /media/sshmount, this will reconnect in the background and present the files after a few seconds.

When I am in rdesktop and try to copy files using the -rdisk switch to share a local dir remotely (I use -rdisk:ubuntu=/home/darrenm) then the copy will lock up the whole X session unless I xkill rdesktop, which doesn't actually kill the process, the only way to get rid of it is to reboot.

If I strace rdesktop I can see it trying to stat every mount and when it hits one of the SSHFS mounts where the connection has dropped it locks up there. Normally fuse can reconnect in the background but this doesn't happen with rdesktop.

The interesting bit of strace is below:

and thats where it hangs. If I ensure all mounts are ok before running rdesktop there is no problem.

Please let me know if you need any more information.
