path to smbmount, smbmnt, and smbumount

[David M. Stowell]

I'm running a small network, consisting of 1 WinNT box, 2 WinME boxes, 
and 2 Red Hat Linux 7.2 boxes, one of which is my primary domain 
controller. Both Linux boxes are running samba-2.2.2-20011013 from rpm. 
I use LinNeighborhood for most of my connection work, though taking it 
out of the mix does not change the basic problem.

The problem I'm having is that smbmount, smbmnt, and smbumount are 
installed in /usr/sbin. Because of this, I can make whatever 
connections I need from the Linux boxes if I'm logged under root, but 
if I am logged in as a normal user, those three executables cannot be 
found (/usr/sbin not being on my path). If I attempt to invoke smbmount 
with an explicit path (/usr/sbin/smbmount //server/public ~/public, for 
example), I am prompted for a password, the I get the message "execvp 
of smbmnt failed. Error was No such file or directory.smbmnt failed: 1" 
My hunch is that smbmount is trying to find smbmnt along the path, 
which (again) does not include /usr/sbin.

In order for this to work, do I need to alter my path, or there another 
way of dealing with this?

Thanks,
