automount SMB in Tahoe 26 no longer working

MacBook Pro M1, MacBook mini M1 Tahoe 26.


I have mapped 6 shares from my NAS (Public, Photo, backups etc). This has been working for almost 10 years in all MacOs versions. Just open finder, and the shares appeared by auto-mounting.


In Tahoe, it no longer works, I need to manually remount on each restart. ( by open the network devices, drag each share to the finder favorites bar).

Adding the shares to the Settings, General, Loginitems does work, but this opens 6 folders on startup that I have to close, as I do not need all shares on the desktop.

What has happened? Has Apple forgotten that (business) users have auto mounts on network servers?


How to get this annoyance fixed?
