Samba mount (from one of our build scripts). We decided to upgrade to RedHat 7.2 (which uses a newer version of Samba -- 2.1.1b IIRC), maybe that fixes the problem. However, I decided to submit this bug report, in the hope that it may help kill some bugs. (Remember -- the only good bug, is a dead bug :)) So, here is the dmesg output: Linux version 2.2.16-22enterprise (root@porky.devel.redhat.com) (gcc version egcs-2.91.66 19990314/Linux (egcs-1.1.2 release)) #1 SMP Tue Aug 22 16:29:32 EDT 2000 Intel MultiProcessor Specification v1.4 Virtual Wire compatibility mode.
