	Mmm, just did a "locate smbmnt" which returns quite a bit of 
files ... but this is one of them ... "/usr/sbin/smbmnt" ...

	I then did a "ls /usr/sbin/smb*" which returned ...	
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root      1427724 Feb 11 17:37 
/usr/sbin/smbd
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root       438380 Feb 11 17:37 
/usr/sbin/smbmnt
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root       448172 Feb 11 17:37 
/usr/sbin/smbmount
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root       436844 Feb 11 17:37 
/usr/sbin/smbumount

	I also checked my path with "printenv | grep -i path" ... 
which returned ...
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/root/bin

	I also decied to check what mount thought it should be doing, 
so I did a "ll /sbin/mount*" ... which returned ...
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           19 Dec  4 12:41 
/sbin/mount.ncp -> ../usr/bin/ncpmount
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            9 Dec  4 12:41 
/sbin/mount.ncpfs -> mount.ncp
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           18 Feb 11 17:40 
/sbin/mount.smb -> /usr/sbin/smbmount
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           18 Feb 11 17:40 
/sbin/mount.smbfs -> /usr/sbin/smbmount

		I think that smbmnt can be found, I am now really stuck ... 
any more ideas would be wonderful ... thanks ...

	So, now you think I am confused at this ... I am not even 
able to find a log for the smbmount stuff ...

	Thanks for everybodies ideas ... please keep them coming ...
