I installed smbfs,and then put some entries into /etc/fstab, so they automount 
on startup. An example of this is here:
//<ip address of nas box>/<share name>  /home/hamish/<directory name>  cifs  
credentials=/home/hamish/.smbcredentials,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,uid=1000,gid=1000
  0  0

** note the use of "cifs" in the lines above **

(The username and password are in the .smbcredentials file)

On startup, for each entry in the /etc/fstab file, I get the following in dmesg:
[   70.495504]  CIFS VFS: Error connecting to IPv4 socket. Aborting operation
[   70.495569]  CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -101
But the shares are mounted, and a nautilus session opens up (which is also 
annoying...)

Also logging off with CIFS shares mounted in /etc/fstab, it sits with an error 
message:
CIFS VFS: server not responding
CIFS VFS: no response for cmd 50 mid <this number changes>
And takes about 2 minutes to timeout. This also happened with Gutsy

Should the timing of the mounting and dismounting be changed so that it
works? It is related to the starting of network-manager and CIFS shares
trying to connect on startup *before* the network is up, and dismounting
the shares *after* network-manager is stopped.
