Not much to go on there I know...
Also, I have encounted a rather serious problem with smbfs. Ok it goes
something like this. If I mount a share using smbfs, and then people
access this share via ftpd, if the share goes down, it leaves the in.ftpd
in the "D" state (uninterruptable sleep).. now after a while the system
clogs up with undeletable tasks, even a simple ls on the expired mount
will lock up, and you cannot delete it even with kill -9.
Yikes!! To me this is a serious problem, and I tried talking to people on
IRC and they're saying stuff like. "Oh just reboot" or "You can't do
anything about that, don't give ftp users access to smbfs or nfs mounts".
I don't care much for either of those solutions, can anyone else comment?

Dave.
