[Samba] smbmount and filesystem images

Wed Jan 28 16:24:13 GMT 2004

Hi

Please CC me as I'm not on the list!

I have a share mounted to my linux box using smbmount, I can create and read files okay. The share is exported from a Win2K server.

On the share I have a ext2 filesystem image which I am mounting with "mount -o loop". This all worked like a charm under linux 2.4 but after upgrading to 2.6.1 it has stopped working, the mount command just hangs. If I copy the image-file to the local filesystem it mounts okay.

Has anybody run in to this before?

Thanks
