If you have a functional link on the desktop, that link can be located
in any other place that a link to Application or URL is allowed. I
don't have any nfs:// links, but my sftp:// links work fine.
Why not set them up as tabs in Konqueror (save
view profile w/
links)? You could also set them up as tabs in the navigation
bar... or add the links to the TDE task bar.
I can't use tabs because I'm in file management view. I tried to add
the "links" to the panel but it does not work (these links a special
as they let you mount/umount the shares)

Hmm, so it's in the "Navigation panel" that I don't use. If I show the
panel
I can create a folder and even give nfs://<address> but all I get is a yellow
rotating wheel.

Yes, *that* is a *big* Linux problem: any "network" access proposed is ftp,
http or Samba. I have tools to access ftp and http, I don't use Samba as I
have no Windows around. I do have an nfs network.
Of course mounting the shares is no problem at the command line, I just find
TDE's option to mount them from an icon on the desktop (and knowing easily if
the share is mounted or not) a great benefit.
Under Gnome I have dock (dash) icons that let me mount and umount with one
click, but I loose the information as to what is mounted.
I guess nfs is mostly used to mount server shares from desktop clients, so
they are mounted at boot. With laptops I perfer to mount when I need.

Does nfs://<address> work from the location bar? What is the link in
your working desktop shortcut?

This link is taken from /etc/fstab and the "shortcut" is a special TDE link

two more options
Have you tried the applet "storage media" in trinity?
possibly adding a panel, autohidable or not, transparent, small etc....
also, you can add a custom menu on a mouse click over the desktop.

Ha! Yes they do but:
- using konqueror as user when clicking the link, nothing visible happen, but
the shares does mount. The same link in Storage Media however can't umount.
- using konqueror as root ("FileManager - Super User Mode") it works,
or rather "sort of". I can mount, then umount, then it stops working.
Testing further I discovered that I could again mount from konqueror-user, and
that in turn made konqueror-root able to umount one of the shares (but not
the other). At that point both links on the desktop showed "not mounted"
while the shaers where mounted...
I can mention also that the links on the desktop change icon depending on
mounted/umounted. Well, they seem to get confused when I use konqueror,
showing "mounted" only when the pointer is over them, or showing mounted when
umounted.

does not. ACtually, the : before the /<directory> gets removed
