Smbmount broken?

Actually, I had noticed that, but since I didn't really have any experience 
with smbmount previous to this, I assumed it was normal. And besides, I had 
already sent the message off when I noticed, and my internet connection was 
down for the night :)

Works beautifully! Thank you so much!

It didn't happen to me either, once I applied your patch. 

Thanks for you help,

 Vance.
