Description Christian Perrier (dead mail address) 2005-12-12 00:22:02 UTC 
The ful bug log in in Debian bug #305210 (see URL).

Summary of the bug reporter explanations:

==========================================================================
Recently, smbmount started to just hang after successfully mounting a
share. Google showed that others have reported this behaviour a long
time ago, with other versions of samba. 

One interesting hit that actually included a patch was
http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2003-November/001784.html

The described behaviour matches the facts I was able to observe with
strace.

Guess what, the patch applied (with some minor tweaking) to samba
3.0.11, and it actually solved my problem. So it looks like this
long-standing problem has not been fixed yet, and may have been
triggered by a recent kernel update.
==========================================================================

I adapted the sent patch for samba 3.0.20b source...This is what I will attach here.
