Life is too short to try and understand Win2k brainstorms so this is what I did: - Instruct user to hit "Esc" twice after login to get rid of the error window. - Created a *.bat file which is in user "Start up" folder and which mounts the shares automatically: @ECHO OFF echo.

What happened to rpm -Uvh samba.rpm? What you should do, according to me, is sava the samba config dir. Hell, tar the whole /etc dir to have a backup while you're at it, then do a rpm -Uvh --test samba.rpm to test the update and see if you need libs etc. Then fix a date and inform your users about the expected downtime. The day of the update check nobody is connected with smbstatus, do a /etc/init.d/smb stop update samba, untar your samba conf files into /etc, start samba and test the connection. If OK mail your users, if KO run very fast and very far... ;-))) In order to cut down on downtime for your users you should do the update either at night or week-ends. > My main concern is with the people who are currently logged into the server. > Do I need to be sure that everyone is logged out?

On a RedHat, netfs would be in /etc/init.d/netfs and you edit the services through a console utility called "setup". Again only on a RedHat. The line in fstab would look something like: [NT_HOST]:/ntshare/mydir/home/mylinuxdirsmb ... [options]... Then on the console you would type: /etc/init.d/netfs start I'm typing this at work and from memory. I can mail you the rest of the options if you want, like how to send the username/passwd directly at mount. You could also find it in the samba man/help pages.

*** There's an issue with pre 10.2.4 OS X and Samba concerning transfer of
big files which end up in a -36 or -50 error. You will also get an error if
you have exotic filenames containing "special" char's. If your Mac complains
about not being able to find a file when it has been copying for an hour
it's probably due to this. You would want to upgrade the OS X to the latest
version if possible anyway.
