I've been having problems with smbmount. I've noticed this on both my desktop and laptop computers. Both are running sid, updated regularly. The symptoms of the problem are:

- mount a share (either from samba on a linux server or from a windows server)
- cd to the mount point
- type ls
- ls freezes!

when I do a ps aux, the ls comes up as:

rwh       6288  0.0  0.1  1996  592 pts/6    D+   16:29   0:00 ls --color=auto

So it's gone into an uninterruptable sleep, which generally means it's waiting on IO. I can't kill it with ctrl-C or ctrl-\, nor with a kill or kill -9.

Now, here's the kicker. If I go mount the share elsewhere, it works fine! I've had a bit of a poke around in the logs, but haven't found anything useful. Is there a way that I can increase the debug level of the smbmount process?

Thanks,

Rob.
