Not sure if other people are having this issue, but I've noticed Safari leaves 'csmount' processes lying around unused even after unmounting the ftp server from the desktop.
Doing a 'ps -axww | grep csmount' reveals them, they look something like this:
Doing a 'ps -axww | grep csmount' reveals them, they look something like this:
xxxx ?? Ss n:nn.nn /System/Library/Filesystems/ftp.fs/csmountWhere xxxx is the PID and n:nn.nn is the CPU time used (and the display is on one line, not two). I've run diskutil repairPermissions disk0s# and it doesn't see anything wrong with the the ftp.fs directory. Anyways, since Jaguar has a functional 'killall' command, killing them is quite simple:
-m /Volumes/SITENAME ftp://SITENAME/PATH/
% killall csmountIt's conceivable that some people may need to run this as sudo killall csmount, for instance if they're launching Safari as root for some reason. All the dead csmount procs I've found were using my uid so far.
