-13 is -EACCESS, see /usr/include/asm/errno.h. The server isn't allowing
access, if you think it should check permissions on the server side.
Sounds like kfm isn't handling the error return properly if it starts
looping on the same directory. But you haven't included enough detail to
say.
smbfs is rather verbose. This causes extra work and you may want to try
editing fs/smbfs/Makefile and remove the line with:
EXTRA_CFLAGS += -DSMBFS_PARANOIA
recompile and reinstall. You won't get anymore "open failed"
messages
(the opens still fails, of course).
