>From Linux, I have smbmount'd a drive on an NT3.51 box and one on an NT4.0 box, when I try to tar them to a large tape (25Gb) it runs for quite a while and then appears to freeze. If I try to ls the directory it freezes as well, mount shows the drive as still mounted. Top doesnt show it running. I am using Linux Redhat 5.0 with 1.9.18p10 samba - can any one offer any advice into what might be locking up and help on viewing what is happening in the system would also be appreciated.
