(Failed to open "/ on ".) failed to connect to network > solved

Hello ,

i found that on Devuan Ascii i could not connect to my local Macmini Server that has Samba activated.

When in Devuan Ascii i would click "Browse Network"

the error would be

Failed to open "/ on ".

Could solve this by installing all Gvfs packages available on Devuan

sudo apt-get install gvfs*

Afterwards when clicking the Network icon, the Windows Network and MacminiServer would show up.

On Devuan Beowulf this error is still persistent (with XFCE4).

after installing "gvfs*" network places  would show up, but afterwards, when clicking a folder on my network drive,

an "open with" dialogue comes up and asks me with which program i want to open "unknown" file ...
