[Samba] Possible memory leak in

[Matt Oursbourn]

If there is something I am doing wrong I am more than open to changing it
and fixing the setup.  Like I said, I have been on linux for a month.

>From what I have found online   "sudo mount -t cifs -o..."  seems to be how
you connect to a samba share via CLI.   Is this incorrect?
