I was discussing this with someone earlier and they've stumbled across
something I
cannot explain to them, when using smbmount with the proper cl arguments
they are
dropped to a smbclient shell of the Window box , rather than having the
windows share
inserted as a mount point into the file system.. ever run across
soemthing like this?
