  Thanks. That seems to be a serviceable workaround, if a bit inelegant.

 If you ever get around to compiling a new kernel... check out the 2.60 series.
 
 Quite nice.
 

Is compiling a kernel more work that screwing around with apps that don't work
properly on an older kernel?

Second vote for 2.6 kernels.  Nothing special, but no bugs have I found in 3
months.

Well, 2.6.0-test8 seems to run extremely well and very fast, even on an
old Pentium I 133MHz.

Anyone else notice the _major_ facelift and rearranging done to the
configure?  Makes more sense, but I'm glad the first time or two through
I used oldconfig.

Ciao,

Re: 'smbmount' hangs

2003-10-20 Thread Tim Wunder
On 10/20/2003 10:57 AM, I believe that Michael Hipp wrote:

I have a script file thus to automatically mount some smb shares:

#!/bin/bash
# Mount our Samba shares
smbmount //linux/public /mnt/public -o 
username=,password=,workgroup=workgroup,uid=michael,gid=michael
smbmount //linux/shared /mnt/shared -o 
username=,password=,workgroup=workgroup,uid=michael,gid=michael
smbmount //linux/backups /mnt/backups -o 
username=,password=,workgroup=workgroup,uid=michael,gid=michael

When I execute the above commands  (as su) manually one at a time they 
work every time. When I run them from a script it will hang somewhere 
almost every time. When I execute them from /etc/rc.local my box won't 
finish booting and hangs. /var/log/messages shows nothing nor dmesg.

Sometimes the first one hangs, sometimes the second, sometimes the 
third. Wierd thing is, when one of the commands hang, the mount succeeds 
and is usable, but the command just never returns.

The server is a RH9 box and I've set all the shares wide open for now. I 
don't suspect the server because it works great from other Win boxes on 
the LAN. I've seen this symptom before tho from other RH9 clients on the 
LAN.

Someone had a similar issue with smb mounts in the fstab file and 
someone else posted a suitable workaround. Looks like it may be a samba 
bug, though. You might wanna check their mailing list archives...
