Howdy,
I'm running RedHat 7.0 on a Compaq Proliant 5500, 4x Xeon 550MHz, 4GB 50Ns
EDO RAM. Under kernel 2.2.16-22 I'm able to use
'mount -t smbfs //ntserver/share /net -o
username=me,password=mine,workgroup=yours'
... without a problem. NT files become available under '/net', as expected.
I've compiled a number of 2.4.1 and 2.4.0 kernels (actually supports the 4GB
RAM!!! Yay!!!!), and I have only one more problem to sort out. Under
2.4.x, the mount completes successfully, but 'ls /net' causes an OOPS: 0000.
I've compiled Samba support into the kernel, and the version of Samba utils
is 2.0.7-21ssl
Any clues or similar experiences???
Thanx,
Jim Shaw.

Known problem. There are some patches that seem to fix it so it should be fixed
in the main 2.4 tree soon

Try http://www.hojdpunkten.ac.se/054/samba/smbfs-2.4.1-pre10-cache-2.patch
Let me know if it works for you or not.
(patch should be ok with 2.4.0 or 2.4.1)

Resolved! Running like a bought one now. Thanks Urban, you are so cool
