While using smbmounted shares I get the following errors in my syslog: ---<snip>-- Nov 27 18:27:45 cayman kernel: smb_request: result -104, setting invalid Nov 27 18:27:46 cayman kernel: smb_retry: successful, new pid=529, generation=2 --</snip>-- Is this something I should worry about? I am using RH 6.2, linux 2.4.16 and samba-2.0.10-0.62 installed from RPM. Regards, Peter

Tar complains: "file changed > as we read it" and exits with some other exit status than 0 (success).That is unrelated. smbfs opens and closes files, this cause them to change date. tar complains because it sometimes sees these effects on mtime. In most cases the file did not actually change. Old known problem. /Urban
