</div>It depends on a couple things. First, is Bob using fstab manually?<br>
Is he using Ubuntu's GNOME automounter? Is he using a version prior<br>
to 9.04?<br>
<br>
9.04 rearranged things such that GNOME's VFS subsystem is now<br>
accessible to the rest of the Linux system. I'm guessing they linked<br>
it in via FUSE or some such.<br>
<br>
An experiment: Create a .html file on your external disk, and<br>
double-click on it in Nautilus. What does Firefox then say the path<br>
is?<br>
