Ubuntu: Editing "connect to server" entry

Post by ^rooker »

[PROBLEM]
When you've created a shortcut on the desktop using "Connect to server" on Ubuntu 6.06, it's unfortunately impossible to edit it later on.
Currently you can only delete it and create a new one in order to make a minor change.

Even something simple as renaming an entry is impossible. (or maybe I'm just too stupid to figure it out)

[SOLUTION]
You can manually edit those entries, using the gconf-editor and changing values of entries below this key:
/desktop/gnome/connected_servers/
Jumping out of an airplane is not a basic instinct. Neither is breathing underwater. But put the two together and you're traveling through space!
