Greg,

It appears the patch is across all versions.  You should be able to 
patch your current kernel, if you have the source.

I'm also not sure if this is the exact problem.  I build my own kernel 
from the 2.4.x source tree frequently and update my RPMs by hand, so I 
try to keep track of the patches.  This one sticks out; because it 
involves the smb file sharing and possible corruption with the file 
permissions.

Good Luck,
James Kosin
