I'm guessing that this line, for whatever reason, takes 30 seconds or so to complete. Maybe newer versions of samba or a different config causes not.a.host.name to go through some resolution process that times out rather than failing immediately? I really know next to nothing about Samba. Dustin -- Storage Software Engineer http://www.zmanda.com
