Thunar smb and authentication

Hi all.
I'd like to solve this matter.

I use Thunar XFCE under Artix Linux.

I nee to access to my shared folders on my nas Synology, running samba 4.10.18.

Every time I try to access to my shared folder on nas with url  smb://service/home Thunar ask me the password.

The samba user's password is different from login password for Artix.

Can I use PAM to redirect only smb auth request to my nas?

I hate to insert the password every time I need to access on the shared folder.

The option "Remember for all time" does not work

Best regards
  MZ

Hello,

Thunar probably use gvfs for samba, which use gnome-keyring for credentials, you'll need seahorse for managing your passwords.
