FW: [Samba] smbmount question

[Van Sickler, Jim]

Nevermind...need to read the whole msg...

I didn't notice you were installing WINS on
the NT box...hence the reboot.

Standard practice for Winxx:

1.  Install, reboot
2.  Update, reboot, repeat....

I support about 25 pc's-it annoys the hell
out of me how MS manages updates.  How many
Internet Explorer security updates have there
been so far this year-22?  Each one of them
requires a reboot...
22x25xdownload time+2 min's/reboot is a lot of
downtime for the users, and a lot of waiting
time for me.  And it's only May...

Can you just stop/restart the WINS service?

Save you a reboot....
