smbfs crashes after inactivity

2001-05-17 Thread Robert Hawkey
es, but when you try to remount the share it tells you that the share is already mounted. The only way to get the share back is to reboot the machine. Does anyone know why this is happening? Here's the command we use to mount the share: mount -t smbfs -o username=,password=,rw,fmask=0777,dma

Slink + smbfs packaged with slink. smbmounting a share from an NT server works fine, but in large directories I only seem to see a portion of the files! Note that this is NOT Samba FAQ 2.2 - the missing files have names that are as valid as those I can see. In fact, after deleting or moving
