Package: kernel-source-2.6.8
Version: 2.6.8-16sarge3
When attempting to mount a Win9x share with
fstype=cifs,
Ethereal trace shows the session request going out
with server name SMBSERVER instead of the NetBIOS name
supplied with the mount command.
A look at the source (.../fs/cifs/connect.c) shows
connection attempts on port 445 occurs first (new SMB
over TCP/IP for WinXP/2K, etc.), which is rejected
because the Win9(8) client is not listening on that
port. Then a connect attempt on port 139 (old SMB
over TCP/IP for Win9x), which succeeds. Conditional
session setup request for port 139 going to called
server name SMBSERVER*. Ethereal trace confirms this
behavior.

The 2.6.8 kernel is no longer supported by Debian so I'm closing
your bug report. Please try the 2.6.26 kernel from Debian lenny.
If this issue is still present, let me know.
Thanks.
