SMBCLIENT PROBLEM
I use smbmount-2.1.x to access Windows NT file systems from other computers in the net. Sometimes the connection gets lost and I get the following message when I try to list those directories: bash-2.02$ ls /net/XXX ls: /net/XXX: Input/output error bash-2.02$ If I try to mount again the net directories, smbmount-2.1.x says: Could not resolve mount point and the only solution I know is to restart my potato. After restart the connections are available again. How can I restore connections without restarting?

I can only suggest you that upgrades your kernel to 2.2.x and install, after do it, the last smbfs package that replace the smbfsx for 2.1.x kernels. After the two updates (kernel and package) all runs ok now.

And your mount point isn't visible, although you can cd to it? I've had the same thing happen (although not lately). What I do is: /etc/init.d/samba stop then: /etc/init.d/samba start then it works as advertised.

As someone else has noted, the potato versions work much better (though I still get this problem occasionally).

Re: SMBCLIENT PROBLEM
Try umount the partition (even if the mount appears to have failed) prior to trying smbmount again. I get the error you mention if I try smbmount and have a problem in password authentication. umount then smbmount seems work for me.
