...04 ..." After mounted, the script lists, copies and moves some files from there to local folders.

Can't get /etc/mtab~ lock filesmbmnt failed: 1 ..." Followed by the other command falied messages: "... ls: /mnt/xfer/DIR/F0005161: Input/output error cp: cannot stat `/mnt/xfer/DIR/F0005161': Input/output error mv: cannot stat `/mnt/xfer/DIR/F0005161': Input/output error ls: /mnt/xfer/TMP/F0005161.tmp: Input/output...

I have cross-compiled smbmount(smbmnt, smbclient) using samba-3.0.24.tar.gz, then ported them to an ARM Arch machine whose /etc directory is read only. The smbmount command always results in errors """Can't get /etc/mtab~ lock filesmbmnt failed: 1""" Someone says that If we rebuild samba with the smbmount-nomtab.patch and smbmount-mtab-flags.patch, it would work fine using 'smbmount -n' - no mtab problem anymore. Does the samba-3.0.24.tar.gz have the patches, where can i find them?? thanks.
