fstab is read by the "mount" command, when it is invoked. Writing stuff in fstab is essentially the same as giving that "stuff" as arguments to the mount command. So no need to reboot.

Please note that, while path normally includes file name, some use that word to denote the containing directory -- in particular in the Windows world. So better treat the word as ambiguous.

Thanks for the help download and upload working.
Yes the windows world is what screwed up my path.
Have to stop thinking that way and use terminal more often.
For instance xubuntu shows "usbremote" on desktop when plugged in.
Terminal mount works
If i click "usbremote" on desktop message states "failure to mount
"usbremote" operation was canceled" but it is mounted anyway
Then right click the icon on desktop and unmount message ask's
for administration password because it was mounted by another user.
so permisions also plays a role in this

For the next build I have modified the JPS code to append "settings.bin" to the given port name if the name is that of a directory, and to accept a directory name that either does or does not end in a "/" separator.

While adding that line to the fstab file does indeed make the remotes mount.
It does have an adverse effect on usb flash drives.
Now when inserting a usb flash drive i need admin priv. to copy files to it and the transfer rate is extremely slow,
I put # in front of that line to test it and flash drive operation's return to normal.
So i guess i need to find another solution
