Right. But I need it 'cause I need non-root users mount the thing...
Should not be a problem, right?

Aha -- I did not know that it was supposed to. Also, I noticed that on RH
7.0 (ie. Sambla 2.0.7), the error was:

smb_trans2_request: result=-32, setting invalid
smb_lookup: find //My Documents failed, error=-5

while on RH 7.2 (ie. Samba 2.2.1b), the error is:
smb_trans2_request: result=-104, setting invalid
smb_lookup: find //My Documents failed, error=-5

Is -32 in 2.0.7 the same as -104 in 2.2.1b? Am I doing any better, or is it
the same problem?

Add it to the fstab? Like so:
//intranet/DBS_D        /mnt/intranet           smbfs
user,username=cellbucksdev,password=in4mation,debug=4           0 0
???

OK, I'll try to reproduce the problem with the above setting. I guess I need
to make the smbmount.log writable by anyone. But, I remember that I needed
to make smbmnt suid, shouldn't that be enough?
